Councilman Dave Martin Provides Information for the Sales Tax Holiday
Texas will still celebrate its state sales tax holiday Aug. 7-9. Clothing, footwear, school supplies and other items will be sold sales tax-free during the three-day holiday. Texas comptroller of public accounts has outlined measures shoppers can take while adhering to social distancing. Sales tax-exempt purchases can be made online, over the phone, by mail or via custom order during the following circumstances:
•the item is paid for and delivered to the customer during the three-day time frame;
•the customer orders and pays for the item, and the item is received and accepted by the seller during the three-day time frame; and
•for immediate shipment, even when the item is delivered following the three-day time frame.
