Newark

Taxes this government levies

Levies we can source to Newark as the levying government, quoted from the official sources linked on each row. Overlapping governments (state, county, regional authorities) levy their own taxes on the same residents — the calculator links below combine the full stack.

• Newark payroll tax — 1.0% Paid by employers, based on where the work is performed
  Employer-side cost of hiring in Newark — 1% of quarterly payroll for services performed in, supervised from, or reporting to Newark. Employers with quarterly payroll of $2,500 or less owe nothing, and an employer with more than half its workforce living in Newark owes no tax on resident wages above that threshold. Paid by the employer, never withheld from wages — not part of this resident estimate.

• Property tax — levy authority identified; rates under review (still needed: sentinel parcel validation)
