As of October 31, 2023, the number of states in the United States where period supplies were taxed at a standard rate (tampon tax) amounted to 21 states. These sales tax ranges from four to seven percent. In these states, menstrual products are often classified as 'luxury products' even though they are basic necessities that half the population requires. This statistic illustrates the number of states in the United States with and without "tampon tax" (tax on period products) as of October 2023.
