This tax holiday applied earlier this year but has NOT yet been approved by the Texas 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 Texas Sales Tax Holiday when doing your back-to-school shopping. The tax free weekend takes place over 3 days:
Friday, August 9
Saturday, August 10
Sunday, August 11
On these dates, you can purchase these items free of Texas state sales tax:
– Clothing and footwear priced at $100 or less per article. Excludes accessories, athletic or protective clothing, and rentals of clothing or footwear.
– Backpacks priced at $100 or less, used by elementary or secondary school students.
– 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, 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 Texas Sales Tax Holiday and back-to-school tax free weekend: August 9-10-11, 2024.
