China’s population fix: 13% tax on condoms, contraceptives from January 1 to encourage more births
China will impose a 13% sales tax on condoms and birth control from January 1, 2026, ending a 30-year exemption as part of efforts to reverse falling birth rates. The move comes alongside incentives such as longer maternity leave, proposed paid paternity leave and tax breaks for childcare services.
