Tax Structure

Texas offers favorable tax rates as it was ranked second in the nation to have the lowest per capita state tax. Texas does not levy corporate income taxes and is one of the few states in the United States that follows this practice. This pro-business philosophy is shared by the City of Mercedes and the Development Corporation of Mercedes who are ready to assist businesses wishing to locate in the area.
