The act was finally repealed and replaced by the Declaratory Act, mainly due to colonial boycotts of the British goods taxed under the Stamp Act.

---

The "Stamp Act" was passed in March and the "Sons of Liberty" were formed in July; the Sons of Liberty used violence and intimidation to force tax collectors to resign or quit. The "Stamp Act Congress" was formed in October, but only presented a petition to the King to repeal the act, which he did so in March of the following year.

The Townshend act was opposed by the "Sons of Liberty" as well, and involved at least three armed conflicts (of notable size); most noted is the Boston Massacre.

Before the stamp act what taxes had the British government set into action.?

Before the Stamp Act of 1765, the British government imposed several taxes on the American colonies, including the Sugar Act of 1764, which taxed sugar and molasses, and the Currency Act of 1764, which restricted colonial currency production. Additionally, the Townshend Acts of 1767 placed duties on imported goods like glass, tea, and paper. These measures aimed to raise revenue and assert British authority over the colonies, leading to growing discontent and calls for resistance among colonists.
