Tax rates in Tennessee have been at Premium Table 6 since July 1, 2015. This is the lowest table in the Department’s statutes.
Effective July 1, 2020, Tennessee’s experienced-employer unemployment tax rates will range from 0.01 percent to 10.0 percent. The new-employer tax rate will also remain unchanged at 2.70%.
