What is the New Mexico sales tax rate?↓
New Mexico has a 5% state Gross Receipts Tax (GRT), which functions like a sales tax. Cities and counties add local GRT, bringing combined rates to between 5.125% and 9.3125% depending on location. Albuquerque has a combined rate of 7.625%. Santa Fe is 8.4375%. Las Cruces is 8.1875%. Rural areas may have lower combined rates while urban and tourism-heavy areas trend higher.
What is New Mexico's Gross Receipts Tax and how does it differ from sales tax?↓
New Mexico's GRT is technically a tax on businesses' gross receipts (revenue), not a sales tax on consumers. However, businesses almost always pass the tax on to customers at the register, so it functions like sales tax in practice. A key difference: GRT applies to most services, not just goods, making New Mexico one of the broadest states for service taxation. Professional services, haircuts, and labor charges are all typically subject to GRT.
What is exempt from New Mexico GRT?↓
New Mexico exempts most unprepared food (groceries) from GRT, as well as prescription drugs and most medical services. Nonprofit activities and certain government transactions are exempt. Unlike most sales tax states, New Mexico GRT applies broadly to services including legal, accounting, consulting, and labor services, which is the biggest structural difference from typical US sales tax systems. This broad service taxation means most purchases in New Mexico carry GRT.
