Dublin sales tax collections were up significantly in October at 27.26% compared to October 2024, according to the state sales tax report released by Acting Texas Comptroller Kelly Hancock.
For the month of October, Dublin received $65,701.70 compared to $51.626.42 in October 2024.
(Sales tax reports generally reflect sales from two months prior as the local sales are reported to the state which processes them and disburses sales tax back to the local entities.)
Acting Texas Comptroller Kelly Hancock received said state sales tax revenue totaled $4.3 billion in December 2025, 5.7 percent more than in December 2024. The majority of December sales tax revenue is based on sales made in October and remitted to the agency in December.
“December state sales tax collections were robust, with growth compared to a year ago outpacing inflation — evidence of continued strength in the Texas economy,” Hancock said. “Remittances from the major sectors influenced mainly by consumer spending indicated a strong start to the Christmas holiday shopping season.”
While collections from the mining and construction sectors both showed sharp declines compared with the same month a year ago, receipts from the manufacturing sector grew moderately and remittances from the information and wholesale trade sectors showed very strong monthly year-overyear gains. Remittances from machinery, equipment and supplies merchant wholesalers were particularly strong within the wholesale trade sector.
Among the major sectors driven mostly by consumer spending, receipts from the retail trade and service sectors both increased soundly compared with December 2024. The retail trade sector, the largest sector, was up more than 5 percent compared with December 2024.
