This year House Bill 7063, the largest tax relief package in Florida’s history was signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis on May 25th.
This tax relief package included the 2023 Disaster Preparedness Sales Tax Holiday, which provides residents with the opportunity to purchase qualifying disaster preparedness supplies tax-free during two 14-day sales tax holidays. During these two 14-day sales tax holidays, Floridians are projected to save $144 million on critical disaster preparedness supplies.
Each year, the Division encourages residents to take advantage of this tax holiday to prepare for hurricane season.
The 2023 Disaster Preparedness Sales Tax Holidays will take place:
Saturday, May 27 through Friday, June 9,
AND
Saturday, August 26 through Friday, September 8.
