The tax-free weekend in Texas for 2025 is from Friday, August 8, through midnight Sunday, August 10. During this three-day event, shoppers can save on most clothing, footwear, backpacks, and school supplies priced under $100 per item. This exemption applies to both in-store and online purchases if the seller processes the payment within the tax-free weekend period. However, items like computers, textbooks, software, subscription boxes, and specialty sports gear do not qualify. Each item must be under $100 to be exempt from sales tax at the register. This sales tax holiday is designed to help families save on back-to-school essentials, and Texas shoppers were expected to save an estimated $133.2 million in state and local sales tax during this period in 2025.
