While in US waters, tax is charged. However it is very minor. I paid a total of less than10.00 on my last cruise that left out of New Orleans. It takes 8 hours to sail down the Mississippi River coming and going.

Yes, you'll pay taxes until you reach international waters (when the slot machines and gift shops open). You'll also be responsible upon return if you plan on getting up early enough to make purchases before debarkation.

Yes you have to pay while in dock but only USA docks. So if you board I. Miami you will pay taxes until you leave port. I can’t remember if we paid in any other ports
