马里兰州和华盛顿州州长正式签署立法，废除了各自的州的销售和使用税的豁免，该立法是在零售购买硬币和珍贵金属金条，以废除各自的州的销售和使用税的豁免。

ND和华盛顿废除对金条和硬币购买的销售免税

The governors of Maryland and Washington have signed legislation that repeals the states' sales- and use-tax exemptions on the retail purchase of coins and precious-metal bullion, according to the National Coin & Bullion Association (NCBA).

根据国家硬币和金银协会（NCBA）的数据，马里兰州和华盛顿州州长已签署了对零售购买硬币和珍贵金属金银的销售和税收豁免的立法。

Maryland governor Wes Moore signed House Bill 352, the Budget Reconciliation and Financing Act of 2025, on May 20, 2025. The measure eliminates the state’s sales-tax exemption for bullion and coin purchases over $1,000, a provision that helped Maryland remain competitive in the national numismatic market.

马里兰州州长韦斯·摩尔（Wes Moore）于2025年5月20日签署了352号法案，《 2025年的预算和解与融资法》。该措施消除了该州对金银的销售税免税和购买超过1,000美元的销售税，这一规定帮助马里兰州在国家资金市场中保持竞争力。

The legislation also preserves a narrow, tailored exemption for events held at the Baltimore Convention Center. All other retail transactions will be subject to Maryland’s 6% sales tax beginning July 1, 2025.

该立法还保留了在巴尔的摩会议中心举行的事件的狭窄，量身定制的豁免。所有其他零售交易将从2025年7月1日开始缴纳马里兰州的6％营业税。

On the same day, Washington governor Bob Ferguson signed Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 5794, which repeals the sales- and use-tax exemption for purchases of precious-metal bullion and monetized bullion as part of a broader tax policy overhaul. This repeal will take effect January 1, 2026, making Washington one of the only western states without an exemption.

同一天，华盛顿州长鲍勃·弗格森（Bob Ferguson）签署了全方位的参议院参议院法案，该法案废除了购买珍贵金属金银的销售和用税豁免，作为更广泛的税收政策大修的一部分。这项废除将于2026年1月1日生效，使华盛顿成为没有豁免的仅有的西方国家之一。

Both states now join the minority of U.S. jurisdictions that impose sales tax on money, despite a growing national consensus recognizing coins and bullion as financial instruments, not consumable goods.

现在，两国都加入了美国少数司法管辖区对金钱征收销售税，尽管全国共识越来越多地承认硬币和金条是金融工具，而不是消耗品。

NCBA leaders expressed concern over the long-term economic impact these repeals will have on local dealers, investors, and collectors.

NCBA领导人对这些废除对当地经销商，投资者和收藏家的长期经济影响表示关注。

“These legislative actions will drive commerce out of Maryland and Washington and into neighboring states with more favorable tax treatment,” said NCBA executive director David Crenshaw. “It’s a step backward that contradicts successful tax policy models across the country.”

NCBA执行董事戴维·克伦肖（David Crenshaw）说：“这些立法行动将以更有利的税收待遇将商业带入马里兰州和华盛顿州，并进入邻国。” “这与全国成功的税收政策模式相矛盾。”

In Maryland, efforts are already underway in conjunction with Whitman Expos and other partners to mount a comprehensive push during the 2026 legislative session to reinstate and expand the original exemption. In Washington, NCBA is engaging stakeholders to assess economic impacts and prepare a data-driven case for legislative reconsideration in coming sessions.

在马里兰州，在2026年立法会议期间，已经与惠特曼博览会和其他合作伙伴一起进行了努力，以恢复和扩大原始豁免。在华盛顿，NCBA正在吸引利益相关者评估经济影响，并为即将到来的会议准备数据驱动的案例。
