HB 4704 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

To exempt daylight fluorescent outer garments from sales

HB 4704 exempts the purchase of daylight fluorescent orange or blaze orange outerwear (sold for hunter's safety) from West Virginia's sales tax during the first two weeks of November each year. This directly affects hunters who buy safety gear during that specific period, removing the sales tax cost. The key provision removes sales tax liability for these items under §11-15-9v of the West Virginia Code during the designated November window. The bill focuses solely on a temporary tax exemption for a specific safety product, with no other policy changes.
