Utah Shuffles the Sales Tax Map: New Inland Port & Murray Changes Arrive Oct. 1
Utah is giving its sales tax map a makeover starting October 1, 2025. The changes include:
- Three new Inland Port Authority sales tax districts
- A brand-new Convention Center Revitalization Zone (CCRZ) in Salt Lake County
- Parts of Salt Lake County shifting into Murray City — with a small rate bump attached
The Inland Port Goes Live
Utah’s Inland Port Authority is officially on the map with three fresh sales tax locations:
- Ancient Sky – San Juan County (location code 19-500)
- Pony Express – Cedar Fort (location code 25-502)
- Pony Express – Fairfield (location code 25-503)
If your business falls inside one of these new districts, you’ll get a new outlet number and sales tax license. The good news? Sales and use tax rates aren’t changing, but your compliance systems will still need an update.
Other Moves to Watch
- Salt Lake’s New Hotspot: The CCRZ zone (location code 18-604) is being created in Salt Lake County, aimed at revitalizing the convention center area.
- Murray Annexations: Some unincorporated Salt Lake County addresses are moving into Murray City (18-096). This one comes with a twist: the combined sales tax rate will increase from 7.45% to 7.65%.
Why This Matters
These updates may look like just new lines on a map, but for providers, they’re the difference between collecting the right tax or risking penalties. Businesses should:
- Update tax software or GIS systems with the new location codes
- Adjust invoicing to reflect the correct outlet numbers
- Double-check rate changes, especially in the Murray annexation area
- Make sure reporting is ready to go for October filings
