Tax changes take effect this Sunday

Two key tax changes will take effect this Sunday:

* If you buy wine and spirits from a liquor store in Rhode Island, you will not have to pay Rhode Island’s 7 percent sales tax.

* If you buy original works of art or limited edition works of art anywhere in Rhode Island, you will not have to pay Rhode Island’s 7 percent sales tax.

The Division of Taxation has just posted an Advisory with details about the changes.
