    New Hampshire income tax in 2026

    New Hampshire is one of the states with no personal income tax on wages, so your paycheck only has federal withholding and FICA taken out.

    What makes New Hampshire different

    New Hampshire has never taxed wages, and since 2025 it no longer taxes interest and dividends either, making it a true no-income-tax state. It also has no general sales tax, relying instead on property taxes, which are among the highest in the country. Many residents work in Massachusetts, which taxes wages earned there.

    • New Hampshire does not tax wages, and its interest and dividends tax was fully repealed as of January 1, 2025.
    • Only federal income tax and FICA are withheld from a New Hampshire paycheck.

    Tips

    • Because New Hampshire has no wage tax, pre-tax 401(k) and health deductions only save federal tax here. They still lower your taxable income.
    • Update your federal W-4 (and state form, if any) after major life changes.
    • Compare with other states: New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina.
