- Pennsylvania is switching Philadelphia and Allegheny County local sales taxes from origin-based to destination-based sourcing.
- Vendors must collect the local tax based on where taxable goods or services are delivered, not where the seller is located.
- This means deliveries into Philadelphia generally face 8% total tax, and deliveries into Allegheny County generally face 7% total tax.
- The law is effective January 1, 2026, but enforcement begins October 1, 2026.
- Businesses should update tax systems and compliance processes before enforcement starts.
