When Sales Tax Applies
Sales tax is applied to orders based on the shipping destination and the applicable state or local tax laws. We currently collect and remit sales tax in U.S. states where we have economic nexus or are otherwise required to do so by law.
You may be charged sales tax if:
- Your shipping address is in a state where Global Containers Line is required to collect tax
- Your purchase does not meet a tax-exempt qualification (such as resale or agricultural use)
You may not be charged sales tax if:
- Your state does not impose sales tax
- You provide a valid resale or exemption certificate before checkout
- Your container is shipped internationally
We encourage all customers to check their local tax regulations or consult a tax advisor if they believe they qualify for exemption.

Calculation Methodology
Sales tax at Global Containers Line is calculated based on the shipping address provided at checkout.
We use an automated tax engine that applies the current tax rate for:
- The state
- The county
- The local municipality
All rates are sourced from the most up-to-date U.S. state tax authorities. This includes any applicable:
- State sales tax
- County or city taxes
- Special district levies (if applicable)
📌 Note: Sales tax is calculated only on taxable items and may not apply to shipping fees in all jurisdictions.
