Wyoming Sales Tax Calculator
Figure the tax, the total, or the pre-tax price for any U.S. state or city rate
Wyoming levies a 4% state sales tax on most tangible goods and certain services. When you add local option taxes collected by counties and municipalities, the average combined rate across the state is 5.56% according to the Tax Foundation's 2025 midyear data — one of the lowest combined rates in the United States.
Local jurisdictions can add up to 2% on top of the state base, so the total rate you pay depends on where you shop. For example, Teton County (Jackson Hole area) charges an additional 2%, bringing the combined rate to 6%, while many rural counties sit at 5% or even the state-only 4%.
Groceries are largely exempt from Wyoming sales tax at the state level. Unprepared food items such as bread, produce, meat, and dairy are not taxed by the state, though local taxes may sometimes apply. Prepared foods from restaurants or delis remain fully taxable.
Worked example: A $100 purchase in a county with the 5.56% average combined rate generates $5.56 in sales tax, for a total of $105.56. In Cheyenne (Laramie County, 5% combined), that same purchase would cost $105.00.
To use this calculator, enter the purchase price and the applicable tax rate for your Wyoming location. The tool instantly returns the tax amount and the final total — handy whether you are shopping in Casper, Gillette, or anywhere else across the Cowboy State.
Practical example — Wyoming
A shopper buying a $350 television in Casper (Natrona County, 5% combined rate) pays $17.50 in sales tax for a total of $367.50; the same purchase in Jackson (Teton County, 6%) costs $371.00.
