HB 2447 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of March 4, 1971 (P.L.6, No.2), known as the Tax Reform Code of 1971, in sales and use tax, further providing for exclusions from tax.

This bill modifies Pennsylvania's sales tax code to temporarily exempt the purchase of firearm safety devices from sales tax. The exemption applies to items such as gun safes, vaults, lockers, and various types of locks, but only during a six-month window starting when the law takes effect. To qualify for the tax break, an individual must place their order and pay for the device within that six-month period, regardless of when the item is actually delivered. The Department of Revenue is required to publish online guidance to help consumers understand how to use this exclusion. The changes are scheduled to become effective on July 1, 2026, or immediately if enacted sooner.
