Through August 14th, shoppers are exempt from paying Maryland's 6% sales tax on any qualified article of clothing and footwear costing less than $100 (click here to see a list of taxable and exempt items).
“Tax-free week is a rite of Maryland’s late summer, signaling the approach of a new school year, cooler weather and a change of wardrobe,” Comptroller Franchot said. “Maryland’s high vaccination rates means life is beginning to return to normal. While I continue to urge caution, Marylanders should take advantage of tax-free week savings and support locally owned businesses that have been hit hard during the pandemic.”
For Tax-Free Week, please consider supporting local businesses in the City of Mount Rainier and Prince George's County.
