Ohio Sales Tax Holiday Savings Opportunity

 

The 2025 Ohio Sales Tax Holiday will take place Aug. 1-14, offering Ohioans meaningful savings during the back-to-school season.

 

“The timing of this year’s sales tax holiday not only supports families preparing for back-to-school, but also provides relief on other important household needs,” said Governor DeWine.

 

During the holiday, shoppers will be able to make qualifying purchases both in-store and online without paying state sales tax. The tax exemption does not apply to services or to purchases of motor vehicles, watercraft, outboard motors, alcohol, tobacco, vapor products, or any item containing marijuana.
