Davidson County sales tax rate, North Carolina
The Davidson County sales and use tax rate in North Carolina is 2.25% (general rate, intrastate sales) on 2026-11-02 (effective 2014-10-01), in the state's Streamlined Sales Tax rate file NCR2026Q3APR23.
It is a local rate: the rate on a sale where it applies adds it to the North Carolina state rate of 4.75% and any other local rate that applies there, so the combined rate depends on the location. North Carolina's 5-digit ZIP records assign it to 6 ZIP code entries.
A published rate is not the tax due on a sale: taxability, sourcing, nexus and exemptions all change what is owed.

- These are published sales and use tax rates by jurisdiction. They are not the tax due on a transaction and not a taxability determination: whether an item is taxable, which location's rate applies (sourcing), whether the seller must collect (nexus) and any exemption all change what is owed. Rates come from the Streamlined Sales Tax files the states publish or, where a result's source says so, from the state revenue department's own files and pages; confirm with the state before relying on them.
- Olympus corrected an error in the state's own published SST file behind this result (correction nc-2026q4-dare-county-repealed-1pct). The corrected value follows the state revenue department's published source: https://www.ncdor.gov/taxes-forms/sales-and-use-tax/sales-and-use-tax-rates/current-sales-and-use-tax-rates. Every corrected rate or boundary record lists the correction in its corrections field.
