Let’s make this summer one to remember.

Mark your calendars! Maryland’s annual Tax-Free Week is back from Sunday, August 10 through Saturday, August 16, 2025 — and it’s the perfect time to shop and save.

✅ What’s Included?

From 12:01 a.m. on Aug. 10 to 11:59 p.m. on Aug. 16, shoppers in Maryland can skip the 6% state sales tax on:

• 👕 Clothing and footwear priced under $100 per item
• 🎒 The first $40 of any backpack purchase

This means items like jeans, sneakers, dresses, sweaters, belts, school uniforms, and more all qualify — as long as they’re $100 or less per item. Buy five items at $99 each? Still tax-free.

🧾 Quick Example:

• A $90 pair of shoes? Tax-free
• Two $60 sweaters? Both tax-free
• One $120 dress? You’ll pay tax on the full amount

📚 Perfect for Back-to-School

Whether you’re prepping for fall, back-to-school, or just updating your closet, it’s a great time to shop smart and save.
