Info
Nevada's statewide taxes on gasoline are 23.805 cents per gallon: the 23-cent state excise tax plus a 0.75-cent cleanup fee and a 0.055-cent inspection fee, per the Nevada DMV fuel tax rate table. Every county adds its own local option tax and, in several counties, an inflation-indexed tax, so the total at the pump depends on the county where you buy fuel (the DMV publishes the per-county figures). No 2026 gas-tax suspension is in effect in Nevada. The 18.4-cent federal gasoline tax is extra.

Info
Nevada property is taxed each fiscal year at the combined rate of all ad valorem taxes levied in the county where it sits, so bills vary by county and taxing district. State law limits how fast a tax bill can grow through partial abatements: the owner of a single-family home that is the owner's primary residence cannot see the tax bill rise more than 3% over the previous year, apart from increases caused by improvements or a change of use (NRS 361.4723). Owners of residential rental dwellings get the same 3% limit only if they charge rent within affordable-housing standards for low-income housing and claim it (NRS 361.4724). For other property the yearly increase is capped at the lesser of 8% or the greater of the county's 10-year average growth in assessed value or twice the prior year's CPI-U increase (NRS 361.4722).
“The Legislature hereby finds and declares that an increase in the tax bill of the owner of a home by more than 3 percent over the tax bill of that homeowner for the previous year constitutes a severe economic hardship”

Groceries are exempt from Nevada sales and use tax: NRS 372.284 exempts the gross receipts from sales, and the storage, use or other consumption, of food for human consumption — an exemption proposed by the 1979 Legislature and adopted by Nevada voters at a special election on June 5, 1979, effective July 1, 1979. "Food for human consumption" does not include alcoholic beverages, pet foods, tonics and vitamins, or prepared food intended for immediate consumption; those stay taxable at the full state and local rate.
“There are exempted from the taxes imposed by this chapter the gross receipts from sales and the storage, use or other consumption of food for human consumption. 2. “Food for human consumption” does not include: (a) Alcoholic beverages. (b) Pet foods. (c) Tonics and vitamins. (d) Prepared food intended for immediate consumption.”
