Statewide Education Property Tax
A uniform statewide education property tax (SWEPT) rate is assessed to property owners in New Hampshire.
The SWEPT is governed by RSA 76:3 and RSA 76:8. The portion of the education tax to be raised by each municipality is calculated by multiplying the uniform education property tax rate by the municipality's tax base. The SWEPT is assessed and collected by local municipalities.
