New Mexico sales tax overview
The New Mexico (NM) state sales tax rate is currently 5.125%. Depending on local municipalities, the total tax rate can be as high as 9.0625%.
State law determines the state's portion of the gross receipts tax, which changes annually, typically in July. County commissioners and municipal councils govern local portions, effective in January or July. Rate schedules are issued biannually, requiring businesses to track changes independently.
Businesses in New Mexico are subject to gross receipts tax if they engage in selling property, leasing or licensing property, granting franchise rights, performing services, or selling research and development services performed outside NM when the product is first used in the state. Anyone conducting business in New Mexico must register with the Taxation and Revenue Department (TRD). For more information, please visit the New Mexico Department of Revenue website.
