Hall Income Tax Notice

Phasing Out of Tax 

Notice #16-05 

The Hall Income Tax Rate Is Reduced to Five Percent
The Tennessee General Assembly recently passed legislation (Public Chapter 1064 (2016)) that reduces the Hall income tax rate from six to five percent for tax years beginning January 1, 2016, and after. 

Action Must Be Taken To Reduce the Rate over the Next Five Years
This new law requires full repeal of the Hall income tax for tax years beginning January 1, 2022. It expresses legislative intent that the tax be statutorily reduced by one percent annually, though this will require new legislation each year. If no action is taken, the rate will remain at five percent until January 1, 2022.
