Maine: Does the state have a sales-tax-free weekend?
No tax-free period
Maine has a 5.5% sales tax and no sales tax holiday.
Maine's general sales tax rate is 5.5%. The sales tax statute has no tax-free period. This is inferred from the absence of any holiday provision; Maine Revenue Services' pages blocked automated access and couldn't be checked.
