The Florida Department of Revenue has officially released guidance for two significant sales tax holidays scheduled for 2026. These holidays are designed to assist retailers and stimulate consumer spending during peak shopping seasons.
The first holiday will focus on back-to-school shopping, providing families with an opportunity to save on essential school supplies. The second holiday will cater to outdoor recreation, encouraging Floridians to engage in outdoor activities.
Retailers are encouraged to prepare for these sales tax holidays, as they are expected to boost sales and attract more customers. The guidance outlines the specific items that will be exempt from sales tax during these periods.
