Maryland Sales Tax Holiday Free Weekend

October 24, 2024

This tax holiday applied earlier this year but has NOT yet been approved by the Maryland 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 Maryland Sales Tax Holiday when doing your back-to-school shopping. Unlike most states where the tax free weekend lasts only a few days, Maryland’s tax holiday continues for an entire week!

Sunday, August 11
Monday, August 12
Tuesday, August 13
Wednesday, August 14
Thursday, August 15
Friday, August 16
Saturday, August 17

On these dates, you can purchase these items free of Maryland state sales tax:

Clothing and footwear priced at $100 or less per item. Accessories such as jewelry, watches, watchbands, handbags, handkerchiefs, umbrellas, scarves, ties, headbands, and belt buckles are excluded.

Many stores will be having special back to school sales on eligible items in conjunction with the sales tax holiday. Walmart, Target, Belk, Neiman Marcus, Famous Footwear, Dillard’s, Sears, JCPenney, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Marshalls have frequent tax free weekend sales and back to school tax holiday promotions.

Be sure to take advantage of the Maryland Sales Tax Holiday and back-to-school tax free weekend: August 11-17, 2024.
