====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== August 3, 2006 Virginia, D.C.--Sales Tax Holiday Upcoming Dear HSLDA members and friends: This is to remind you that both the state of Virginia and the District of Columbia have declared sales tax holidays to offer some relief to parents as they prepare for a new school year. Virginia's annual 3-day holiday eliminates sales tax on school supplies, clothes, footwear, and baby items beginning 12:01 a.m. Friday, August 4 and ending at midnight on Sunday, August 6. The exemption from the 5 percent sales tax covers each supply item costing $20 or less and each clothing item costing $100 or less. Below are links to explain specifically what is exempt: List of School supplies eligible for the exemption: http://www.tax.virginia.gov/web_pdfs/STHAllExemptList.pdf List of Clothing, Footwear, and Baby Items eligible for the exemption: http://www.tax.virginia.gov/web_pdfs/STHExemptClothing.pdf Virginia Sales Tax Holiday website including frequently asked questions: http://www.tax.virginia.gov/site.cfm?alias=STHoliday The District of Columbia is declaring a similar 9-day Sales Tax Holiday beginning 12:01 am Saturday, August 5 through midnight Sunday, August 13, 2006, to provide buyers an exemption from the 5.75 percent sales tax for shoes, clothing, and accessory items. The exemption covers each supply and clothing items costing $100 or less. D.C.
