Annual Sales Tax Holiday 2007
This year's sales tax holiday for clothing and footwear
begins at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, August 17, and ends at midnight on Sunday, August
19. The list cannot include every possible item that qualifies for the exemption.
If you have questions about items not shown here, please call 1-800-252-5555.
Qualifying items are exempt from state and local sales taxes.
Most clothing and footwear priced at less than $100 will be exempt from sales
tax. Customers will receive the break on individual items, regardless of the
total amount they buy. For example, sales tax is not due if a customer buys six
shirts each priced at $99.99. But full tax is due on a shirt sold for $100; the
first $99.99 cannot be exempted.
Clothing and footwear used primarily for athletic activities or for protective
wear are not eligible for the exemption. Customers buying golf cleats or
football pads, for instance, must pay sales tax. Athletic wear that is also used
for participation in other non-athletic activities can qualify for tax
exemption. For example, tennis shoes, baseball caps, and jogging suits are worn
during everyday activities and thus may be purchased tax free during the
holiday.
Also excluded from the sales tax holiday are accessories such as jewelry and
watches; items that are carried rather than worn, including handbags, briefcases
and wallets; clothing rentals, such as formal wear and costumes; and repairs and
alterations.
