New Mexico collected $99 million in license taxes during the fourth quarter of 2024, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s Quarterly Summary of State and Local Taxes.

This represents a 4.2% increase over the same quarter the previous year, when license tax revenue was $95 million.

Overall, New Mexico collected $3.3 billion in combined tax revenues in Q4.
