HF 964 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act exempting the sale of toilet paper from the sales tax.

HF 964 proposes to exempt the sale of toilet paper from the state's sales tax. This would directly affect consumers, who would no longer pay sales tax on toilet paper purchases, and retailers, who would stop collecting sales tax on this item. The bill achieves this by amending Section 423.3 of the state's code, adding the sale of toilet paper to the list of items exempt from sales tax. By operation of existing code, this exemption would also apply to the use tax.
