About ZIP 72223

ZIP boundaries are postal routes, not tax boundaries.

Arkansas caps local tax on single transactions above $2,500 for some purchases, so vehicles and large equipment are treated differently. For destination-based sourcing, Arkansas sellers should confirm the rate by full street address rather than ZIP alone — a single ZIP can cross a city limit or a transit-district boundary, and the rate follows the boundary, not the mail route.
