Free Sales Tax Invoice Generator for United States
This free Sales Tax invoice generator is set up for United States. It prints the title "Invoice", adds your EIN, applies Sales Tax at and keeps every total exact to the smallest unit of US Dollar (USD). The United States has no federal VAT: sales tax is set by each state and local area, and many services are not taxed at all.
Fill in your business, your client and the items; the invoice builds itself beside the form. Each line can carry its own rate, and the totals show the taxable value, each tax line and the grand total, followed by the amount in words. Special cases are covered too (tax-exempt (resale certificate) and exempt): pick the treatment and the legal wording is printed for you. Dates follow the local format (10/26/2026).
Nothing you type leaves your computer: drafts, saved clients and your invoice history stay in this browser, and the PDF is created on your device. Rates were last checked on 2026-10-26; tax rules change, so confirm anything unusual with your tax authority.
