SB 2412 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to an exemption from sales and use taxes for firearms, ammunition, and other related items sold during a limited period.

SB 2412 creates a temporary sales tax exemption for firearms, ammunition, and firearm accessories during a designated period. It exempts these items from Texas sales and use taxes when purchased within the specific timeframe outlined in existing law (Section 151.326(a)(2)), directly affecting consumers buying such products during the holiday. The exemption applies only to purchases made during the limited period, not to prior sales, and takes effect September 1, 2025. This policy change modifies tax liability for qualifying purchases during the designated window, with no retroactive effect on taxes owed before the effective date.
