Menstrual care products in Germany were untill 2020 by tax, declared as luxury articles. On products for the necessities of life there are 7% taxes. For luxury articles like at that time tampons and pads the amount of tax was 19 %. It is obvious that we can be very grateful to use menstrual care products and that it is nothing that we can take for granted, because it is only essential for the lives of about half the population.
