A note about sales tax: The sale of a car is taxed at 7% in NJ, very few residents are taxed at half that rate which is 3.5% because they live in areas which qualify for the reduced state tax rate (example: Vineland and Millville in Cumberland County).
7.00%. The New Jersey state sales tax rate is 7%, and the average NJ sales tax after local surtaxes is 6.97%. Items such as groceries, household paper products, medicine, and clothes are exempt from all sales taxes. Gasoline purchases are not subject to the New Jersey Sales Tax, but a Gasoline Excise Tax does apply.
