Each endpoint returns detailed tax rate information, including state, county, city, special, and total tax rates. Additionally, geographic data such as city, county, state names, zip codes, latitude, longitude, and data quality indicators are included.
Key fields in the response include `state_rate`, `county_rate`, `city_rate`, `special_rate`, `total_rate`, `latitude`, `longitude`, `data_quality`, and `last_updated`. These fields provide comprehensive tax information for the queried location.
Parameters vary by endpoint. For example, the "Taxes by Zip Code" endpoint requires a zip code, while "Taxes by Address" needs a full address. Users can customize requests by specifying different geographic identifiers like city or state.
The response data is structured in a standardized JSON format. It includes a `success` flag, followed by a `data` object containing tax rates and geographic details. This organization allows for easy parsing and integration into applications.
The data is sourced from official state and local tax authorities, ensuring accuracy. Regular updates are made to reflect changes in tax rates, and a data quality indicator informs users whether the information is estimated or verified.
Typical use cases include calculating sales tax for e-commerce transactions, integrating tax rates into billing systems, and conducting financial analysis. Businesses can use this data for compliance and strategic tax planning.
Users can utilize the returned data by integrating it into their applications for real-time tax calculations. For example, e-commerce platforms can automatically apply the correct tax rates based on the customer's location using the API's output.
If a request returns partial or empty results, users should check the input parameters for accuracy. For example, ensure the zip code or address is valid. Implementing error handling in the application can help manage such scenarios effectively.

To obtain your API key, you first need to sign in to your account and subscribe to the API you want to use. Once subscribed, go to your Profile, open the Subscription section, and select the specific API. Your API key will be available there and can be used to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
If you don’t cancel before the 7th day, your free trial will end automatically and your subscription will switch to a paid plan under the same plan you originally subscribed to, meaning you will be charged and gain access to the API calls included in that plan.
The free trial ends when you reach 50 API requests or after 7 days, whichever comes first.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost, so you can test our APIs without any commitment.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
