Maryland Holds Tax-Free Shopping Week 2021

Maryland will hold its annual sales tax holiday August 8-14, 2021. During this time, eligible clothing, footwear and accessories are exempt from Maryland’s 6% state sales tax rate.

Maryland Sales Tax Holiday August 2021
  • Clothing with the purchase price of $100 or less per item;
  • Footwear with the purchase price of $100 or less per item; and
  • Backpacks with the purchase price of $40 or less per item.

Retailers can issue discounts or coupons to reduce the sales price of an item to $100 or less, which will then qualify it for the exemption.
