Tennessee collected $5.4 billion in income, license, miscellaneous other and sales and gross receipts taxes during the first quarter of 2024, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's Quarterly Summary of State and Local Taxes.

This represents a 1.6% decrease from the same quarter of the previous year, when combined tax revenues were $5.5 billion.

The majority of the state's tax revenue was collected through sales and gross receipts taxes ($4.3 billion) and income taxes ($482 million).

In addition to detailed tax revenue data from each state, the Quarterly Summary of State and Local Government Tax Revenue includes an estimate of state and local government tax revenue at a national level.

The Census Bureau cautions it sets the tax classifications among the survey categories, and they may differ from the classifications set by the state governments. Also, not all states collect all types of taxes.
