State offices must accept cash
Starting July 1, 2026, Idaho state offices that take payments must accept cash. They cannot charge an extra fee just for paying in cash. Any amount added or subtracted by the 5‑cent rounding rule is not treated as a fee.
Stores may round cash to 5 cents
Beginning July 1, 2026, if a seller cannot make exact change with cash on hand, the seller may round the total or the change due to the nearest 5 cents. Amounts ending in 1, 2, 6, or 7 cents round down; 3, 4, 8, or 9 cents round up. The same rule applies to cash refunds. Sales tax is calculated to the nearest cent before any rounding.
