    It may be legal to charge sales tax on shipping and handling. The laws vary by state. The legality can also be affected by how the charges appear on the invoice. Some states, such as California, allow sales tax to be charged for handling but not for shipping when the items are listed separately. However, when the charges are lumped together, sales tax may be charged on both.
