Truly income-tax-free since 2025

New Hampshire never taxed wages, but until recently it did tax interest and dividend income (3% in 2024). That levy was fully repealed as of January 1, 2025, making New Hampshire a complete no-income-tax state for the first time — a milestone for retirees and investors. There is no state or local sales tax either, so New Hampshire is one of only two states (with Alaska) free of both income and sales taxes.

The catch: property taxes

New Hampshire funds local government almost entirely through property taxes, which rank among the three highest in the nation. Renters feel this through rent; homeowners feel it directly — a typical bill can run two to three times the national average. It's the main reason 'tax-free New Hampshire' deserves an asterisk.

What still comes out of your paycheck

Only federal income tax (progressive brackets with the 2026 standard deduction) and FICA — Social Security at 6.2% up to the annual wage base and Medicare at 1.45%, plus the 0.9% Additional Medicare Tax on earnings above $200,000 for single filers. This calculator estimates both. Note for remote workers: if you live in New Hampshire but work for a Massachusetts employer, Massachusetts may still tax your wages.

Frequently asked questions

No. With no income tax of any kind, Social Security, pensions, IRA distributions, interest, and dividends are all untaxed at the state level.
How much is $75,000 after taxes in New Hampshire? ▼
A single filer earning $75,000 takes home about $61,593 per year after federal income tax and FICA — with $0 going to the state, tied for the highest take-home pay of any state at this salary.
What's the tax downside of New Hampshire? ▼
Property taxes are among the three highest in the nation and fund most local services. If you own a home, that bill can easily exceed what an income tax would have cost in a neighboring state.

Possibly. Massachusetts has rules that can tax nonresident employees working remotely for Massachusetts employers. Check current Massachusetts guidance — this is separate from New Hampshire's own (nonexistent) tax.
