HD 1295 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to the bundled cell phone taxation

This bill changes how sales tax applies to phone bundles. When a seller offers a mobile device with service (like a phone and a plan), the tax will now be calculated on the device's price instead of just the service plan. It directly affects consumers buying phones with service contracts and phone sellers who bundle devices with plans. The key change modifies existing tax rules to include the device cost in the taxable amount.
