The New Jersey state sales tax rate is 7%, and the average NJ sales tax after local surtaxes is 6.97%. 1  Groceries, clothing and prescription drugs are exempt from the New Jersey sales tax.  Counties and cities are not allowed to collect local sales taxes.
The tax rate will not rise or fall automatically as gas prices rise or fall. Instead, the law puts a cap on how much money the state can raise from the tax. Each year, New Jersey can bring in no more than what 23 cents, or 12.85 percent per gallon, would have produced in the fiscal year that ended June 30.
