August 9-11: New 2013 Sales Tax Holiday Dates

The recent passage of Senate Bill 485 (83rd Regular Legislative Session, 2013) changes the dates of this year's annual Sales Tax Holiday to Aug. 9-11, a week earlier than previously scheduled. The law became effective immediately.

The Sales Tax Holiday gives Texas shoppers a break from state and local sales taxes on most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks priced under $100. Shoppers can save up to $8.25 for every $100 they spend.

Publication 98-490, Sales Tax Holiday/Tax-Free Weekend and Rule 3.365, Sales Tax Holiday - Clothing, Shoes and School Supplies tell you what you need to know.
