What’s in it

AI summary People buying honeybees will no longer have to pay state sales or use tax on the purchase price. This change means the cost of honeybees will not include these specific taxes.1

This bill exempts the sales price of honeybees from the state sales and use tax. By operation of Code section 423.6, an item exempt from the imposition of the sales tax is also exempt from the use tax imposed in Code section 423.5.
