The state sales tax rate in Nevada is 6.85%.
Local jurisdictions can add taxes on top of the 6.85% base rate, so the total rate varies significantly from one area to another.
The Department of Taxation says fabrication labor is taxable, while repair, reconditioning and installation labor are not taxable if they are listed separately on the invoice.
From each agency's own page. Check with your city or county for any local license as well.
Nevada law requires every locksmith and safe mechanic to obtain a permit from the sheriff of the county where their principal place of business is located. The permit expires after 5 years and may be renewed.
The Board licenses plumbing and heating contractors under classification C-1, which includes a plumbing subclassification (C-1d).
The Board licenses electrical contractors under classification C-2.
The Board licenses refrigeration and air-conditioning contractors under classification C-21, and heating, cooling and circulating-air work falls under subclassification C-1f of the C-1 license.
Repair labor is considered a service and is not taxed, but labor and parts must be separated on the invoice for tax to apply to the parts only. If one combined charge is listed, the entire amount is taxable.
What the software does today, nothing more. It does not file your returns or give tax advice.
