HB 929 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Sales tax; create diversion to counties.

HB 929 redirects 9% of Mississippi's sales tax revenue collected from business activities outside municipal boundaries to counties. This change modifies existing tax distribution rules to send these funds directly to county governments instead of municipalities. The bill specifically amends Section 27-65-75 of the Mississippi Code to implement this 9% allocation for non-municipal business sales. This policy affects all counties by providing them with additional local revenue streams from statewide sales tax collections.
