What is apple tax

Question: Q: Can I purchase an item without sales tax if I am a foreigner and plan to use the device outside from the US?

Hi, I’m bolivian and I plan to but an iphone, is there a chance that I could buy it (factory unlocked) at a store in the US for the sole purpose of using it outside the country, sales tax free?? I was told there is such a thing if I can prove that I’m leaving the country (for example by showing my plane tickets online or something).

You can only get the phone without sales tax if you buy it some place that doesn’t have sales tax. The state of Delaware is one such place.

If you are buying it in the USA from an Apple Store or any retail store (i.e. Best Buy, Walmart, Target, etc.), then you must pay taxes. You would have to contact a third party company or someone who is selling their own device in order to buy something without tax. Taxes are mandatory in the USA and the only way to decrease the tax rate is by having a special discount like Military.

No, the scheme you described is for Value-Added-Tax countries, the US does not yet have a VAT.

In the US, sales tax is collected on a State-by-State basis. Occasionally, if you buy from a company that does not have presence in the State where the goods are delivered, you would not have to pay sales tax. But most phones are sold by companies that have a presence in every state, and collect the state sales tax in every state that has a sales tax, so that does not work very well for phones.

If you are a US company purchasing goods for resale under certain conditions, you can use your resale identification number to not be charged sales tax. But I expect this would not work for most Apple products.

Idris Seabright is correct that some states do not have a state sales tax. New Hampshire is another state that does not have a sales tax. In some cases, the goods sold by national companies are priced higher in non-sales tax states to keep customers from cheating.

Payment

Payment methods

Apple accepts a variety of payment methods online. See payment method below to find out more:

Note: Business lease, wire transfers, and money orders are ineligible payment methods for pickup items.

Some payment types are ineligible for orders that ship to multiple addresses. If you are using an ineligible payment type for an order shipping to multiple addresses, you will either need to change the payment method, or ship your order to a single address.

Some customers may qualify for other forms of payment. Please call 1-800-MY-APPlE and speak to an Apple Specialist for more information.

Using more than one payment method

You can also combine payment methods to pay for your purchase. Choose from the following combinations of credit cards and gift cards:

  • Credit card(s) — up to two
  • Apple Gift Card(s) — up to eight
  • Apple Gift Card(s) — up to eight + one credit card
  • Apple Gift Card(s) — up to eight + Apple Account Balance
  • Apple Gift Card(s) — up to eight + Apple Account Balance + one credit card
  • Apple Account Balance + one credit card

Apple Gift Cards and Apple Account Balance cannot be used with Apple Pay, PayPal, or split credit card payments. Please note that you can use the value from all types and generations of Apple gift cards. For more details, see:

  • How to use Apple Gift Cards and App Store & iTunes Gift Cards
  • How to use Apple Store Gift Cards

During checkout, if you are paying with a gift card issued by a credit card company, you can combine it with one credit card.

Credit Cards or Debit Cards

Troubleshooting credit card & debit card payment errors

  • If your card is new or recently reissued, make sure it has been activated.
  • Remove dashes or spaces from the account number.
  • If everything seems to be correct, call the card issuer’s customer service 800 number on the back of your card. Your credit card company may need to speak with you before they authorize your purchase.

Account verification

To prevent any unnecessary delays processing your order, please ensure that the billing address on your order matches the information on your credit card account. If you have recently moved or are unsure whether you receive your credit card statement at your work or home address, please contact your card-issuing bank using the 800 number on the back of your credit card to confirm.

Security codes

The card security code is a unique three or four digit number printed on the front (American Express) or back (Discover/MasterCard/Visa/) of your card, in addition to the account number.

Daily spending limits for Debit Cards

Most debit and check cards have daily spending limits that may substantially delay the processing of an order, even if there is enough money in an account. When using a debit card, funds are immediately reserved in your bank account at the time you place your order. Please consult your card-issuing bank for information about your daily spending limits if you are having trouble placing your order.

When Apple charges your account

When you place an order, Apple will contact your credit or debit card’s issuing bank to confirm it is a valid account. Apple requests an authorization, which holds the funds for the full or partial purchase amount. As Apple prepares your items, authorized funds will be unavailable and may display as «pending» on your credit or debit card’s online statement.

If you are shipping an item, your card will only be charged after the item has shipped. For pickup items, you will be billed before your item is ready for pick up. If your order contains multiple items, you may see multiple charges on your credit or debit card statement.

If you cancel your order before your items are billed, any authorizations placed on your credit card account can take up to 30 days to expire and any authorizations placed on your debit card account can take up to 10 days to expire. Contact your financial institution for their specific timeframes.

Credit cards accepted

In the U.S., we accept:

  • American Express
  • Discover
  • MasterCard
  • UnionPay
  • Visa

If you are paying for your order with an international Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or UnionPay credit card, please note that the purchase price may fluctuate with exchange rates. In addition, your bank or credit card issuer may also charge you foreign conversion charges and fees, which may also increase the overall cost of your purchase. Please contact your bank or credit card issuer regarding these fees.

Any gift card issued by a credit card company can be used as a method of payment on the Apple Online Store. During checkout, if you are paying with a gift card issued by a credit card company, you can combine it with one credit card.

PayPal

When you place an order with PayPal you will be redirected to the PayPal website. There you will then need to login with your PayPal username and password.

If your order consists of multiple deliveries, your PayPal account will be charged separately for each shipment.

Tax rate

In accordance with state and local law, your online purchases from Apple will be taxed using the applicable sales tax or seller’s use tax rate for your shipping address, or the Apple Store address where the item is picked up.

Tax-exempt orders

To place an order on behalf of a tax-exempt organization or individual, please call an Apple Store Specialist at 1‑800‑MY‑APPLE .
