With the exception of backpacks/bookbags, all accessories, including jewelry, watches, watchbands, handbags, handkerchiefs, umbrellas, scarves, ties, headbands, and belt buckles will be taxable. And special clothing or footwear designed primarily for protective use and not for normal wear, such as football pads, will be taxable.

Alterations are taxable, even if you buy and pay for them at the same time you buy a piece of clothing that’s exempt from the tax during the exempt period. For example, if you buy a pair of pants for $90 and pay $15 to have them altered, tax will be due on the alteration charge but not on the pants.
Do layaway purchases also qualify?
Yes, if a customer begins a layaway agreement during the Shop Maryland period any eligible items placed on layaway during that period will qualify for the exemption.
