Current Sales Tax in Germany

As far as I know the current sales tax in Germany sits at a high 19% on goods purchased. The high German sales tax helps pay for many social programs like housing for the homeless and universal health care. You might want to considering purchasing most things while in the US and bringing them to Germany to avoid paying the high tax.

We can only assume the German sales tax might get higher as time passes, but for now it should stay relatively the same.
