Tax exempt municipal bonds can be found through government websites. If you invest in these bonds the interest earned are not taxable. It's an incentive to invest in government programs.
Municipal Bonds are bonds that are tax exempt from many tax offices. Municipal Bonds are exempt from tax when they are accepted by the local tax office depending on the law of the state.
No, interest earnings from municipal bonds are not tax exempt at the federal or state level.
Taxable municipal bonds are bonds issued by governments (municipal bonds) that are NON-tax exempt (most munis are.) They are often better for IRA investments than tax-exempt bonds because they tend to pay higher interest rates and IRAs are tax exempt anyway. They are issued for a variety of reasons (often, they don't count against a bond issuers' cap) but, in part, because they are a good investment vehicle for IRAs and other tax exempt accounts.
No they are not. Municipal Bonds are generally tax exempt for interest paid on them on Federal Income taxes. Sale of Municipal Bonds are reported on your personal tax return and therefore any gain on the sale will be reported on Schedule D.

The income from bonds is taxed, unless the bonds are exempt from federal tax (municipal bonds) and/or state tax (varies by state). If there is gain on the sale of a bond (you receive more than you originally paid for it), the gain is taxable.
A tax exempt bond is issued by a municipality. The tax exempt status is not a property of the bond itself but is a result of tax legislation regarding municipal bond interest as being tax exempt. The interest rates on the bonds (the amount paid to the bond holder) are usually lower than on corporate bonds but because of the tax exempt status the lower rate may or may not result in a higher after tax yield depending on the rates of the two bonds and the tax bracket of the bond holder.

muni bonds also called as municipal bonds are always a worthwhile investment to do. muni bonds are attractive to many investors because the interest income is exempt from federal income tax, and in many cases, state and local taxes as well. Municipal bonds can indeed be a worth while investment to many investors. They are very attractive because the interest income is exempt from federal income tax.
Yes, it should be reported on your tax return. In general, interest from a municipal is not taxable, but it could affect other items on your return, or be taxable in your state. Proceeds from the sale of a muni bond could be taxable if there is a gain on the sale. This question is too complex to be fully answered in this forum. As always, consult with a tax professional for specific answers. CPA Greg
