HF 963 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act exempting the sale of laundry soap or detergent from the sales tax.

House File 963 proposes to exempt the sale of laundry soap or detergent from the state sales tax. This bill directly affects consumers who purchase these cleaning products and the retailers who sell them. It achieves this by adding a new subsection to Section 423.3 of the state's Code, specifically exempting the sales price of laundry soap or detergent. As a result, these items would also be exempt from the state's use tax.
