Read the contract carefully,
as this is the legal agreement between us. Please ask me any questions if
the terms of the contract are unclear to you.
The Texas Sales Tax Exemption
The State of Texas provides a special
sales tax exemption for rented or purchased gear essential to and used
directly in the production of a motion picture, video, or audio.
Certain restrictions apply but most Austin Film Tools rentals qualify
for the exemption. Read more about the
sales tax ruling.
