2011 Local Sales Tax Increase
What does that mean for you?
The voters of Charleston County elected to increase the sales tax by 1%.  That means the total tax on visitors (and locals in the case of dining out) will increase county-wide.  Please make sure that you are ready for the change by visiting this website.
