Sales and Use Tax
New Mexico doesn't have a sales tax but instead imposes a gross receipts tax. The statewide rate is 5% but local options add-on rates may bring the total to over 7%. The average currently is about 6%. The tax is imposed on the person engaging in business; the vendor is the taxpayer and not a collector of tax from the buyer. "Gross receipts" includes receipts from selling property, leasing property or performing services in New Mexico. Deductions are available for (among others) the export of goods or services, sales of tangible for re-sale or lease, services for re-sale (with some limitations) and sales of tangibles to governments. A 5% compensating use tax is imposed on the use, consumption or storage of tangible personal property of tangibles purchased outside New Mexico for use inside the state. The sale of manufacturing equipment will be subject to either the gross receipts tax or the compensating tax.
