Florida Back To School Tax Break Ends

Florida's 2026 Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday ends Thursday, August 20, 2026. During the exemption period, qualifying clothing, footwear, wallets, bags, and backpacks priced at $100 or less per item are exempt from sales tax. Certain school supplies priced at $50 or less, learning aids and jigsaw puzzles priced at $30 or less, and personal computers and related accessories priced at $1,500 or less for personal use also qualify. The exemption does not cover every school-related purchase, so residents should review the state's item limits.
