Changes

The jurisdictions that changed on this Pennsylvania chart are included with a plan.

The tax rates page prints PA Sales, Use and Hotel Occupancy Tax at 6 percent, Allegheny County local sales tax at 1 percent, and Philadelphia local sales tax at 2 percent. The sales and use page and the local sales page print the same three figures. Each local total is the statewide figure plus that local figure, and both parts are listed beside it. Hotel occupancy uses the statewide figure. Monitoring and validation only.

Hotel occupancy is the statewide sales, use, and hotel occupancy figure.

However, the Department of Revenue understands that vendors may need time to adjust to this change in law. As a result, the department will not begin enforcing these new rules until October 1, 2026.

What the type letters mean
