Nevada tax resources

  • AN OVERVIEW OF STATE OF NEVADA TAXES - A comprehensive list and explanation of Nevada taxes. A good reference guide with easy-to-read descriptions and some contact numbers to find out more information about certain taxes. This site is courtesy of the Nevada Department of Taxation.
  • TAX RATES BY COUNTY - A Nevada map showing where each county is located and its tax rate. This site provides a table with a description of the tax, where the tax is distributed and where it is imposed. This is a great site for taxpayers who want to know where their tax dollars are going.
  • TAX RATES BY CITY - Click on the first letter of a city in Nevada and this site shows you its tax rate. It's a great site if you don't know the name of the county where the city is located. When you look up the city, the table tells you the county where it is located and its tax rate.
  • WHY INCORPORATE IN NEVADA? - Short but to-the-point list from the Nevada Secretary of State about tax-related business benefits in the Silver state. This site teases those looking for the tax benefits of starting a business in Nevada but it has a drawback: it doesn't say who or where to call for information about how to start a business in Nevada.
  • TOTAL TAXES PER CAPITA AND AS A PERCENT OF INCOME, 1998, BY STATE - See how Nevada compares with other states. This site offers statistical information from The Tax Foundation, a nonprofit research organization. Most tables comparing statistical tax data are difficult to understand. It's hard to tell what the numbers mean. This one is no different, but it is the most simple, least confusing table. This allows visitors see how Nevada measures up, tax-wise.
  • THE TAX FOUNDATION - Check out this nonprofit, nonpartisan policy research organization. It collects information on topics such as how much the median-income family currently pay in taxes and which states have the highest and lowest federal tax burdens. It is not the most interesting information but it has a lot statistics.
  • IRS HOMEPAGE - The homepage of the Internal Revenue Service. Includes a list and links to organizations that will help taxpayers file taxes online.
