The 2005 New Mexico Legislature established a deduction (Section 7-9-95 NMSA 1978) from gross receipts for retail sales of tangible personal property within a prescribed period every year in August. When retailers may deduct gross receipts, they have no need to recover tax costs from some customers. Customers can therefore buy these items during this period free of tax. For a more detailed list of taxable and nontaxable items, please see bulletin B-200.18, List of Taxable and Nontaxable Items for New Mexico’s Gross Receipts Tax Holiday on the department’s web site at www.tax.newmexico.gov, select “Forms and Publications.” The prescribed period of the annual “gross receipts tax holiday” is the first weekend of August from 12:01 a.m. on the first Friday to midnight the following Sunday.
