2027 New Jersey income-tax brackets.
OfficialNew Jersey gross-income marginal rate schedules A and B are identified by the current Division of Taxation guidance as applying from 2020 onward. The 2027 entry reflects that continuing schedule as reviewed October 2, 2026, subject to later amendments; it is not a new annual inflation announcement. State taxable income, exclusions and credits differ from federal rules. Below $100,000, the agency permits its lookup table or rate schedules; at $100,000 or more, use the rate schedule.

Questions about the state schedule.
Is this the state withholding table?
These schedules describe ordinary personal income rates. Withholding methods can differ from annual return calculations.
Does this include city taxes or special taxes?
No. Local taxes, capital-gains taxes, surcharges and high-income recapture can require additional calculations. Read the state-specific note and linked primary source.
Does a zero rate mean no taxes?
A state without an ordinary personal income tax can still levy sales, property, business or other taxes.
Where can I calculate an actual state return?
Use the linked state revenue department’s forms or a qualified preparer for deductions, credits and special calculations.
