Bill > A01707

This bill amends the New York State tax law to increase the tax exemption threshold for clothing and footwear purchases from $110 to $250 per article. Under the current law, clothing and footwear items priced under $110 are exempt from sales tax, and this bill raises that exemption limit to $250. This means that when consumers buy clothing or shoes that cost less than $250, they will not have to pay sales tax on those items. The change is designed to provide consumers with some relief by expanding the range of clothing and footwear purchases that are tax-free. The bill includes a provision for immediate implementation, meaning the new $250 tax exemption will go into effect as soon as the bill is signed into law.
