As of July 30, 2023, 26 states currently charge sales tax on diapers. This diaper tax can be as low as 4% or as high as 7% (Mississippi and Tennessee). In many states, cities and counties can add additional tax.<\/p>\n
Children require at least 50 diaper changes per week or 200 diaper changes per month. By reducing the sales tax, families can buy 2 additional diapers for every percentage point reduction in the sales tax for the same money they would have used to buy 200 diapers with tax.<\/em><\/p>\n \n
