How Nevada Handles Tax on Shipping

How Nevada handles tax on shipping: separately stated delivery is exempt, but shipping in the sales price or bundled with handling is taxable.
Updated last year

Nevada generally exempts shipping if charges are separately stated.


General Rule

Exempt: Delivery is exempt if separately stated.

Taxable: If included in the sales price or bundled with handling, the charge is taxable.


Handling Charges

Handling or combined “shipping & handling” charges are always taxable.


Best Practices for Compliance

  • State delivery separately on invoices.
    ​

  • Avoid combining shipping with handling.
    ​


Example

  1. $200 taxable goods with $15 separately stated delivery → $15 is exempt.
    ​

  2. $200 taxable goods with $15 “Shipping & Handling” → $15 is taxable.
    ​
