Bill > H1015

This bill establishes a temporary sales tax exemption in Florida for specific items purchased between August 1, 2014, and August 10, 2014, aiming to provide relief to consumers. The exemption applies to clothing, wallets, and bags priced at $75 or less per item, with specific exclusions like briefcases and suitcases; school supplies priced at $15 or less per item, which includes a defined list of educational tools; and personal computers and related accessories, such as keyboards, monitors, and non-recreational software, priced at $750 or less for personal use. However, this exemption does not apply to purchases made within theme parks, entertainment complexes, public lodging establishments, or airports. The Department of Revenue (DOR), Florida's tax collection agency, is authorized to adopt emergency rules to implement these provisions.
