How to use this page

Leave the state on Michigan unless the sale is sourced elsewhere—many remote sellers collect for the buyer’s state. Enter the pre-tax amount. Read tax and total.

Food, prescriptions, and clothing are often exempt or reduced. Confirm the category before you treat this as a checkout total. For a restaurant bill, tax and tip are different lines—use the tip calculator for gratuity.
