Georgia County Sales Tax Rate Changes Effective January 1, 2026: What Sellers Need to Know

  • Multiple Georgia counties will have local sales tax rate changes effective January 1, 2026.
  • The state sales tax rate remains unchanged; only county and special purpose local option taxes are affected.
  • Online sellers, marketplace sellers, and businesses filing Georgia sales tax returns with county-level reporting are impacted.
  • Georgia uses destination-based sales tax sourcing, so incorrect rates can cause filing errors.
  • Sellers should review affected counties, confirm rate updates, and test January transactions before filing Q1 returns.
