Hello Vairnim,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We see you have some questions about using Safari on your iPad, and we'd like to help.


Verify that you're following the steps to close one tab, and to close all tabs:

Close tabs in Safari on Mac
• Close a tab: Place the pointer over the tab in the tab bar, then click the Close button  on the left side of the tab.
• Close all other tabs: Control-click the tab you want to keep open, then choose Close Other Tabs.
• Close all tabs to the right: Control-click a tab, then choose Close Tabs to the Right.
If you click a link that opens a new tab, you can close the tab by clicking the Back button 

Close all your tabs from Use tabs in Safari on iPad
• On any open page, touch and hold the Tabs button, then tap Close All Tabs.
• You can also close tabs from the Tab Overview Screen. Touch and hold Done, then tap Close All Tabs.


You may also try force closing Safari, opening again, and then testing to see if you still notice this: Quit and reopen an app on iPad


Regards.
