This tax holiday applied last year but has NOT yet been approved by the Mississippi Legislature for 2025. As soon as I receive further information, this page will be updated. Be sure to check back often!
Don’t miss this year’s Mississippi Sales Tax Holiday when doing your back-to-school shopping. The tax free weekend takes place over 2 days:
Friday, July 12
Saturday, July 13
Sunday, July 14
On these dates, you can purchase these items free of Mississippi state sales tax:
– Clothing and footwear priced at $100 or less per item. Accessories such as jewelry, handbags, wallets, watches, backpacks, and similar items do not qualify for the Sales Tax Holiday. Cleats and items worn in conjunction with an athletic or recreational activity and other similar items not eligible.
– School supplies priced at $100 or less per item.
Many stores will be having special back to school sales on eligible items in conjunction with the sales tax holiday. Walmart, Target, Kohl’s, Belk, Shoe Station, Famous Footwear, Dillard’s, Sears, JCPenney, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Marshalls, Best Buy, Office Depot, Office Max, and Staples are all good bets for tax free weekend sales and special back to school tax holiday promotions.
Be sure to take advantage of the Mississippi Sales Tax Holiday and back-to-school tax free weekend: July 12-13-14, 2024.
