The food sales tax for Kansas will be dropping significantly at the beginning of 2023, giving local residents more money in pocket. Currently Kansas has the second highest sales tax rate on food in the entire country at 6.5%. House Bill 2106 is set to eliminate that state sales tax on groceries by 2025. On Jan. 1, 2023 the Kansas food sales tax will drop to 4% and in 2024 it will drop again to 2%. Washburn Economy professor Paul Byrne told 27 News that the reduction is a win-win for Kansans.
