Sales tax in California

Ballotpedia covers all local ballot measures in California, including sales tax measures.

California has a state-mandated minimum sales tax of 7.25 percent. Counties, municipalities, and districts are allowed to increase the sales tax in specific jurisdictions up to a total of 10.25 percent. This means that local sales tax levies combined cannot amount to more than a 3 percent tax.

Statewide sales tax

Revenues from the mandatory 7.25 percent sales tax were allocated in the following way as of Ballotpedia's most recent update:

• 3.6875% goes into the state of California's general fund (per tax code sections 6051 and 620)
• 0.25% goes into California's general fund (per tax code sections 6051.3 and 6201.3)
• 0.50% goes into California's Local Public Safety Fund for Criminal Justice Services (per Section 35, Article XIII of the state constitution)
• 0.50% goes into California's Local Revenue Fund for Health and Social Services (per tax code sections 6051.2 and 6201.2)
• 1.0625% goes into California's Local Revenue Fund - general purpose (per tax code sections 6051.15 and 6201.15)
• 1.25% goes toward local revenue (per tax code section 7203.1)
  • 1.00% goes toward local city/county operating funds
  • 0.25% goes toward local county transportation funds

Statewide propositions

Californians have voted on 10 statewide sales tax-related ballot measures since 1932. Of those 10, four were defeated and six were approved. Most recently, voters approved Proposition 30 which increased the state tax rate by .25 percent, from 7.25 to 7.5 percent until the end of 2016, when it reverted to 7.25 percent.

Proposition 9 (1932) would have provided for a selective sales tax for state public school funding, if it had passed. Proposition 17 (1958) would have reduced the sales tax from 3 to 2 percent, if it had passed. Proposition 8 (1968) authorized counties and cities to apportion revenue derived from sales taxes. Proposition 133 (1990) would have increased the state sales tax by a half of a percent for four years, with revenue spent on drug education programs, if it had passed. Proposition 163 (1992) included the prohibition on a sales tax on food products intended for home consumption in the state constitution. Proposition 167 (1992) would have reduced the state sales tax by one-quarter of a percent—from 6 percent to 5.75 percent until 1993, and from 5.5 percent to 5.25 percent afterward—if it had passed. Proposition 172 (1993) extended the state sales tax rate of 6 percent, which was set to decrease by one-half of a percent at the end of 1993. Proposition 11 (1998) allowed municipalities to enter into sales tax revenue-sharing agreements with other local governments as long as the governing bodies of those governments agreed. Prior to Prop 11, voters in areas with proposed revenue-sharing agreements had to consent to the arrangement. Proposition 1A (2004) provided that revenues from local sales taxes remain with local governments, rather than going to the statewide treasury. Proposition 30 (2012) increased the state sales tax from 7.25 percent to 7.5 percent through the end of 2016.

Local sales tax elections

Local transaction and use taxes, known as sales taxes, are used by local governments to increase revenue and are always in addition to the state-imposed sales tax rate of 7.25 percent.

California state law requires a two-thirds (66.67%) vote for approval of tax measures with revenue legally dedicated to a specific purpose. Tax measures designed to deposit revenue into the local jurisdiction's general fund require a simple majority (50% + 1 vote) for approval.

The chart below shows the data for sales tax measures on the ballot in California between 2008 and 2024. The highest number of sales tax measures (129) were on the ballot in 2020, while no sales taxes were proposed in 2010.

2017

In 2017, there were 21 local sales tax measures on the ballot in California. Of the 21 measures, 14 were approved, and seven were defeated. Eight measures were designed to fund specific purposes, such as public safety, while 13 measures were for general purposes. The eight ballot measures designed for specific purposes required a two-thirds (66.67%) vote, as outlined by state law. The rest required a simple majority. Fifteen of the measures were designed with no expiration date, while the remaining six measures were designed to expire within five to 20 years.

The 21 local sales tax measures in California proposed an average tax increase of .64 percentage points.

General fund sales tax measures can be approved through a simple majority, while sales tax measures designed to earmark revenue for a special purpose require a two-thirds (66.67%) vote for approval.
