Also for those who use zip code for CA sale tax rate, on Application 17 it stated that it maybe incorrect to use address (zip code) to determine a sale tax.
There is a TON of confusion which is why I contacted the BOE and got something in writing.

If you are a small business with one business location you have to charge the District sales tax rate (example: San Diego 8.75%) when shipping to customers in your District/county (San Diego).

When shipping to customers in California that are outside of your District (example: outside San Diego county) you only have to charge the State Wide rate of 8.25%.

What a mess! No wonder California had budget problems.

...Or.... you can do like some folks and just charge 8.75% to everyone in California and hand it all over to the BOE to keep things simple.
