Pennsylvania collected $697 million in license taxes during the third quarter of 2021, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's Quarterly Summary of State and Local Taxes.

This is a two percent increase over the same quarter of the previous year when license tax revenue was $683 million.

In addition to detailed tax revenue data from each state, the Quarterly Summary of State and Local Government Tax Revenue includes an estimate of state and local government tax revenue at a national level.

The Census Bureau cautions it sets the tax classifications among the survey categories, and they may differ from the classifications set by the state governments. Also, not all states collect all types of taxes.

Overall, Pennsylvania collected $11.4 billion in combined tax revenues during the third quarter of 2021.
