answer text <p>HMRC does not hold detailed information on VAT paid on specific products as this information is not required on a VAT return. Therefore, in some cases estimates are based on market research reports. In this case a report by Mintel ‘Feminine Hygiene and Sanitary Protection Products – UK – January 2018’ was used to estimate the tax revenue from sanitary products.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>Sanitary products are subject to the 5% reduced rate of VAT, the lowest rate permitted under current EU VAT rules. Until the UK leaves the EU, we remain a full member with all of the rights and obligations that membership entails. Finance Act 2016 included legislation to introduce a zero rate of VAT for sanitary products at the earliest opportunity.</p><p> </p><p>HMRC estimates that VAT receipts from the sale of sanitary products are approximately £15m in each of the last five years. In 2015, the Government announced a new fund awarding an equivalent £15 million a year to projects that improve the lives of vulnerable and disadvantaged women and girls. Since 2016, over eighty charities have received grants totalling £47 million from this Tampon Tax Fund.</p> more like this
