Nevada is constitutionally barred from levying a personal income tax under Article 10, Section 1 of the Nevada Constitution. State revenues are funded via gaming taxes, a 6.85% state minimum sales tax, and the Commerce Tax on business gross receipts exceeding $4 million.

Nevada does not levy a state personal income tax on earned wages. Tax parameters are indexed annually or enacted through state legislative sessions. Taxpayers should ensure that adjustments for federal bonus depreciation, Section 179 expensing, and Net Operating Loss (NOL) carryforwards follow Nevada's specific rolling or static Internal Revenue Code conformity date.
