No state income tax in Nevada — so what still shrinks your 2026 paycheck?
Nevada workers pay no state income tax in 2026. That means your paycheck loses only federal income tax and FICA (Social Security and Medicare), so take-home pay beats an equivalent salary in a wage-taxing state. Nevada has no individual income tax and leans heavily on sales tax and gaming/tourism revenue instead.
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.
Nevada's own $12.00 minimum wage — above the federal floor (2026)
$12.00/hour (≈$24,960/year full-time). Single uniform $12.00/hr effective July 1, 2024 after voters passed Question 2 (2022), which abolished Nevada's prior two-tier system (employers offering qualifying health insurance could pay $1/hr less). No tip credit allowed.
What Nevada levies instead: 6.85% sales tax and property tax
| Sales tax | 6.85% (≈8.24% with local) |
| Property tax | ≈0.5% — Among the lower effective property-tax rates nationally (Tax Foundation 2026, owner-occupied housing value). |
Two Nevada payroll quirks worth knowing
- Nevada eliminated its constitutional two-tier minimum wage on July 1, 2024 (Question 2, 2022); employers can no longer pay $1/hr less for offering health insurance, and Nevada is one of seven states that bans a tip credit, so tipped workers also get the full $12.00.
- Nevada funds itself with no individual income tax but a relatively high 6.85% state sales tax (combined avg 8.24%), one of the higher base sales-tax rates among the no-income-tax states.
Is overtime and tips tax-free in Nevada? Federally yes — no Nevada 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.
