Review the list of US states and territories where we're required to collect sales tax on YNAB purchases, including [monthly and annual subscriptions](https://www.ynab.com/pricing) and [merch store orders](https://shop.ynab.com/). Note that your tax rate may also vary based on postal code, and in some cases even within the same zip code.

Sales tax is an additional cost to consider when planning to buy a good or service. While software purchases used to be exempt from this, after recent changes, several U.S. cities and states now require sales tax on YNAB purchases.
