New Hampshire specifics that change the number
On the 2026 rate itself: dividend/interest tax fully eliminated effective Jan 1, 2025.
New Hampshire is also one of five states with no general sales tax, so the total tax picture is lighter than the income tax line alone suggests.
Selling into and out of New Hampshire
Income tax follows you: New Hampshire taxes your profit wherever the buyer was. Sales tax does not. Marketplace facilitator laws make the platform collect and remit sales tax on your behalf in most states, which is why a seller can have customers in all fifty and still file only one income tax return. Selling off-platform is where that stops being true.
