Self-employment tax in New Hampshire
New Hampshire has no state income tax on wages or self-employment income, and its former tax on interest and dividends was repealed for tax periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025. Freelancers therefore owe only federal self-employment tax and federal income tax, and the calculator shows no New Hampshire state line.

New Hampshire freelancer tax — FAQ
Does New Hampshire tax self-employment income?
No. New Hampshire has no state income tax on wages or self-employment income, so self-employment earnings are not taxed by New Hampshire. You still owe federal self-employment tax and federal income tax.
What happened to the New Hampshire interest and dividends tax?
It was repealed for tax periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, so it no longer applies. That change does not affect the federal tax on self-employment income.
Do I still need to make federal estimated payments in New Hampshire?
Yes. Even with no New Hampshire state tax, self-employed filers should make federal estimated payments during the year to avoid interest and penalties.
