Rhode Island’s so-called “Taylor Swift Tax” took effect just two days before the pop superstar married Travis Kelce, creating a striking coincidence involving the high-profile newlyweds.
Officially named Rhode Island’s Non-Owner Occupied Property Tax Act, the new tax law took effect on July 1, 2026, according to the Rhode Island Division of Taxation.
The earlier version of the so-called “Taylor Swift Tax” fizzled out and was never made law.
Gina Raimondo proposed the 2015 version of the tax, hoping to raise nearly $12 million, according to The Associated Press.
Swift’s Rhode Island mansion, meanwhile, sits empty most of the year and now costs her more to keep that way.
