Back to School Sales Tax Holiday in Missouri

By Missouri state law, the sales tax holiday begins on the first Friday in August and continues through the following Sunday. Certain back-to-school purchases, such as clothing, school supplies, computers, and other items as defined by the statute, are exempt from sales tax for this time period only.

In 2018, the Sales Tax Holiday begins at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, August 3rd, and runs through Sunday, August 5th.

Information for cities, counties, and districts not participating in the 2018 Sales Tax Holiday, 2018 Rate Tables, and 2018 Rate Cards will be updated and posted prior to the start of the 2018 Sales Tax Holiday event.
