In Washington, sales tax does apply to certain services. However, it's not a blanket rule for all services. The state has a list of specific types of services that are subject to sales tax. These typically include things like installation, repair, cleaning, altering, improving, construction, and decorating.

If your business provides a service that falls into one of these categories, you would generally need to collect and remit sales tax. If your service isn't on the list, you typically wouldn't need to collect sales tax. But remember, tax laws can be complex and change frequently, so it's always a good idea to double-check the current rules.
