Tax Overview: Nevada
Nevada does not levy a state individual income tax. State tax issues are more commonly tied to business taxes including sales/use tax, the Commerce Tax on businesses with Nevada gross revenue exceeding $4 million, and the Modified Business Tax on wages. Individual residents primarily face federal tax obligations.
