Nevada: Does the state have a sales-tax-free weekend?
No tax-free period
No. Nevada has no sales tax holiday for the public; only National Guard members get a tax-free Nevada Day weekend.
No law sets a tax-free period for the general public. State law exempts purchases by Nevada-resident National Guard members on active status, and by certain relatives who live with them, on Nevada Day and the Saturday and Sunday after it. Nevada Day is observed on the last Friday in October.
What the law says
A member of the Nevada National Guard who is on active status, as defined in 10 U.S.C. § 101(d)(4), and who is a resident of this State, if the sale occurs on the date on which Nevada Day is observed pursuant to NRS 236.015 or the Saturday or Sunday immediately following that day.
