Idaho - Understanding Tax Collection

For events in Idaho, you’ll see a charge of up to 9% of the total amount charged to the attendee (‘buyer total’) for Idaho Sales Tax. For detailed information, visit tax.idaho.gov. Learn more about tax on ticket sales.

In this article

  • If you’ve been collecting tax in Idaho
  • If you or your event is tax-exempt

Under the Eventbrite Merchant Agreement, you authorize Eventbrite to collect and remit taxes on your ticket sales in jurisdictions where Eventbrite is legally required to do so. Please note that you’re responsible for understanding all of your tax obligations.

If you’ve been collecting tax in Idaho

You will no longer be able to collect tax in Idaho since Eventbrite is now responsible to collect and remit sales tax on ticket sales.

If you or your event is tax-exempt

When you set up your event, you’ll have to answer a couple brief questions in Tax Settings. Tax won’t be charged to you or the attendee if you’re a non-profit organization or the event is not predominantly for recreational or commercial purposes.

NOTE: Eventbrite may request supporting documents to verify your answer(s). You’re responsible for providing supporting documents when requested.
