The Office of State Tax Commissioner has contracted with the City of New Rockford to administer the city sales, use and gross receipts tax. Tax is computed by multiplying the taxable purchase by the tax rate and carrying the product to the 3rd decimal place. If the 3rd decimal place is 5 or greater, round up; if it is 4 or less, round down. A local tax guideline and rate charts are available on our website.

Effective July 1, 2019, the combined state, county and city rates within the city limits of New Rockford will be as follows: • General sales and use tax: 7.5% (5% state + 2.5% city) • New farm machinery: 5.5% (3% state + 2.5% city) • New farm irrigation equipment: 5.5% (3% state + 2.5% city) • New manufactured homes: 5.5% (3% state + 2.5% city) • Lodging: o Hotel, Motel and Lodging Accommodations: 7.5% (5% state + 2.5% city) • Restaurant (sale of food and non-alcoholic beverages): 7.5% (5% state + 2.5% city) • Alcoholic Beverages o Off-sale alcoholic beverages: 9.5% (7% state + 2.5% city) o On-sale alcoholic beverages: 9.5% (7% state + 2.5% city)
