How Montana Handles Tax on Shipping

Learn how Montana handles sales tax on shipping charges

Updated this week

Montana is one of the few states with no statewide sales tax. This means shipping charges are not taxed at the state level.


General Rule

No sales tax: Neither goods nor shipping are taxed by the state.


Handling Charges

Since there’s no sales tax, handling charges are not taxed either.


Best Practices for Compliance

  • Businesses may still be subject to other local business taxes but not sales tax.


Example

Selling taxable goods shipped within Montana → no state sales tax applies.


Stay Compliant with Kintsugi

Even without sales tax, Montana sellers with multi-state sales must track compliance elsewhere. Kintsugi Intelligence handles this automatically.


⚖️ Important Notice: Sales tax regulations are subject to change without prior notice. For guidance tailored to your business, please consult a qualified tax advisor.
