======================================================================
The Texas Emergency Preparation Supplies Sales Tax Holiday will occur
from Saturday, April 23, 2022 at 12:01 am, CDT, to midnight, Monday,
April 25, 2022.
The list of supplies and items that qualify appear on the Texas
Comptroller's website at:
https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/publications/98-1017.php
Unfortunately, the tax holiday does not provide exemption from
sales tax on the purchase of radios in excess of $75 in value. Perhaps
we can persuade a Texas legislator to sponsor an amendment to the law
that would extend the tax exemption to permit the exclusion of sales tax
on a broader class of amateur radios and related equipment.
If you have been planning to purchase a small generator, note the
sales tax exclusion does apply to portable generators that cost less
than $3,000.00, permitting — depending on brand and where purchased
— the acquisition of generators up to 15,000 watts.
Be safe.
