JEFFERSON CITY – The Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday is underway.
Section 144.526.1 created the “Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday.”
Beginning in 2009, during a seven day period starting on April 19th and ending April 25th, sales of qualifying Energy Star certified new appliances will be exempt from state sales tax. Local jurisdictions can choose to participate in the Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday.
Both Perry and Ste. Genevieve Counties and the cities of Perryville and Ste. Genevieve participate in the Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday – meaning qualified purchases in these communities would be exempt from county and city sales taxes, as well as the state sales tax for a total savings of 9.225 percent in Ste Genevieve and 7.975 percent in Perryville.
The Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday exempts state sales tax on retail sales of qualifying energy star certified new appliances, up to one thousand five hundred dollars per appliance, during a seven-day period beginning at 12:01 a.m. on April nineteenth and ending at midnight on April twenty-fifth.
Qualifying Items:
The following energy star certified appliances qualify for the holiday.
- Clothes washers
- Clothes dryers
- Water heaters
- Trash compactors*
- Dishwashers
- Conventional ovens*
- Ranges*
- Stoves*
- Air conditioners
- Furnaces
- Refrigerators
- Freezers
- Heat pumps
*According to the Energy Star Website, trash compactors, conventional ovens, ranges and stoves do not receive an energy star rating. Therefore, although the statute anticipates that some day they may receive the energy star rating, tax will continue to apply to purchases of these items during the upcoming Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday.
Cities, counties and districts may also participate in the sales tax holiday by enacting an ordinance exempting their locally imposed sales tax during the Show Me Green Sales Tax Holiday.
Retailer’s selling less than two percent of the qualifying merchandise, shall offer a sales tax refund in lieu of the sales tax holiday.
