Bill > H3329

This bill amends the South Carolina Code of Laws to create a sales tax exemption for diapers and toilet paper, effectively removing these essential household items from the state's sales tax. By adding these items to the list of tax-exempt goods under Section 12-36-2120, the legislation aims to reduce the financial burden on consumers by eliminating sales tax on these everyday necessities. The exemption will take effect after the Governor's approval and will apply to tax years beginning after 2024, which means consumers will start seeing the tax savings in the following tax year. This type of bill is typically designed to provide economic relief to families and individuals by making basic personal care and hygiene products more affordable by removing the additional cost of sales tax.
