Tiered cake is tastier than tiered taxes.

A two-tier tax rate will take effect in San Luis, Arizona, on June 1, 2016. Under a tiered tax system, a different rate applies to single-item sales above a certain amount.

In the City of San Luis, two-tiered tax kicks in when gross receipts from the sale of a single item of tangible personal property exceed $2,500:

  • The first $2,500 is taxed at 4% and reported under Business Code SU 017.
  • Any amount exceeding $2,500 is taxed at 1.5% and reported under Business Code SU 467.
