If you purchased items to be used or consumed in Pennsylvania but did not pay Pennsylvania sales tax on that purchase, you may have to pay Pennsylvania Use Tax.
What is the Use Tax rate?
The tax rate is the same as the sales tax, 6 percent state, plus 1 percent local tax for items purchased in, delivered to or used in Allegheny County or 2 percent local tax in Philadelphia.
