Tennessee Paycheck Taxes

Tennessee does not levy an individual state income tax, so no state withholding is deducted from a Tennessee paycheck. Federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare still apply the same way they do in every state.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Tennessee have state income tax?

No. Tennessee's Hall Tax on interest and dividends — the last piece of its state income tax — was fully repealed in 2021, so there's no state income tax withheld from wages at all.

What taxes are deducted from a Tennessee paycheck?

Only federal taxes: federal income tax withholding, Social Security, and Medicare (plus the Additional Medicare Tax above $200,000). Tennessee has no state or local payroll tax on wages.

Does Nashville or Memphis add local income tax?

No. No Tennessee city or county levies a wage income tax, so withholding is identical anywhere in the state.
