    that is state sales tax.
    there is no federal sales tax ( outside of certain items not computers)
    it doesnt apply for things bought in other states and shipped.

    You would never have to pay state sales tax importing. You would only pay it in retail stores or shipping from a business in the state you are located.

    For me, it would be, like, 9% in my city, state. Arkansas sales taxes by location are highly variable.

    The United States does not have a Federal Sales tax. It only has an Income tax.

    It should not make a difference, but I will mention this again. Most states now tax all online purchases. I know Va is one. If you make a purchase and the site does not tax it, you have to report this on your state taxes. I think you report it on your state taxes, but I always make sure the site taxes me so I do not have to worry about it. The chances of penalties are low, but if you are caught with an audit, you will be pay may fines.
