Corporate Income Tax Rate at a Glance

New Hampshire's top corporate income tax rate is 7.5%, applied as a flat rate. This places New Hampshire in the "Moderate (5–7.99%)" tier among U.S. states.

Rate Structure (Flat vs. Graduated)

7.5% Business Profits Tax (BPT) on net business income for entities with gross receipts over $109,000 (2025 threshold). Reduced from 7.6% effective 2025.

Franchise Tax / Annual Privilege Tax

New Hampshire imposes a Business Enterprise Tax (BET) of 0.55% on the enterprise value tax base (compensation paid, interest paid, and dividends paid) for entities with enterprise value tax base over $281,000 or gross receipts over $281,000 (2025 thresholds). BET acts as a credit against BPT.

S-Corp & Pass-Through Treatment

New Hampshire does not have a personal income tax on wages, but the BPT applies to S-corps, LLCs, partnerships, and sole proprietorships at the entity level (above gross-receipt thresholds), regardless of federal classification.
