The state sales tax rate in Colorado is 2.9%.
State-administered local sales taxes can apply on top of the 2.9% state rate. Denver and Broomfield counties and home-rule cities that elect to run their own sales tax are not state-collected, and self-collected jurisdictions can set their own rules on what is taxed.
Colorado's Department of Revenue treats services as generally outside the sales tax. Installation or delivery charges tied to the sale of taxable goods are included in the taxable price unless they are both separable from the sale and separately stated on the invoice.
From each agency's own page. Check with your city or county for any local license as well.
