HD 60 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to a sales tax exemption for the needs of young children

This bill creates a sales tax exemption for specific items intended for children under age 5. It directly affects parents, caregivers, and retailers by removing sales tax from qualifying children's clothing and accessories purchased for this age group. Key provisions define "children's clothing" (like shirts, diapers, and safety wear) and "children's accessories" (such as hats, gloves, and bibs), while explicitly excluding items like jewelry, bags, or sports equipment. The exemption applies to all qualifying items sold within the state, reducing costs for families buying essential products for infants and toddlers.
