No state income tax in New Hampshire — so what still shrinks your 2026 paycheck?
New Hampshire is one of the U.S. states with no state income tax. Your 2026 paycheck is reduced only by federal income tax withholding and FICA (Social Security and Medicare) — there is no New Hampshire income tax line, so your take-home pay is higher than in an otherwise-identical job in a state that taxes wages. New Hampshire does not tax earned wages; its former 5% tax on interest and dividends was fully phased out and repealed effective January 1, 2025, so investment income is now untaxed too.
What this estimate doesn't include: City, county or school-district income taxes where they apply, court-ordered deductions, union dues, and anything else your specific employer withholds are not in this figure; your pay stub is the authority on those. No state income tax does not mean no state payroll deductions. Check your stub for state-run leave or disability contributions.
Estimates only, not tax advice. The section "What this estimate doesn't include" above lists what's left out; see also our terms and the corrections log.
What New Hampshire levies instead: 0% sales tax and property tax
| Sales tax | 0% (≈0% with local) |
| Property tax | ≈1.5% — Among the highest effective property-tax rates in the nation (top ~3-5); New Hampshire's location-page rate is 1.50% on owner-occupied housing value, and it relies on property tax in lieu of sales/wage taxes (Tax Foundation 2026). |
One New Hampshire payroll quirk worth knowing
- New Hampshire offsets having no sales or wage income tax with one of the highest property-tax burdens in the U.S. (1.50% effective rate, among the top nationally), so the no-paycheck-tax advantage is partly recouped through home ownership costs.
Your paycheck vs the $99,782 New Hampshire median

| Take-home (single filer) | ≈$79,027 |
Is overtime and tips tax-free in New Hampshire? Federally yes — no New Hampshire wage tax anyway
Federal law lets you deduct qualified tips and overtime premium pay from 2025 through 2028 (OBBBA caps & rules), though Social Security and Medicare are still withheld.
