Maryland Opportunity Zones 2.0: FAQ

How many Opportunity Zone 2.0 tracts has Maryland nominated?

No official count yet. As of October 11, 2026, we have not found a Maryland or Treasury source confirming a submitted OZ 2.0 nomination slate.

How many census tracts in Maryland are eligible for Opportunity Zone 2.0?

451 tracts, of which 77 are rural in the IRS Rev. Proc. 2026-14 appendix. Eligibility is set by federal low-income criteria; only nominated and certified tracts become Opportunity Zones.

How many tracts can Maryland nominate?

Up to 113. Under Rev. Proc. 2026-14 the cap is 25% of eligible tracts, rounded up (all tracts if fewer than 25).

Who chooses Maryland's Opportunity Zones?

The governor nominates tracts to the U.S. Treasury, which certifies them. In Maryland, the Maryland Dept. of Housing & Community Development (DHCD) runs the state process.

What is the deadline for Maryland to submit nominations?

The 90-day federal nomination window closed September 28, 2026. A state may request a single 30-day extension, which ends October 28, 2026 at the latest (Rev. Proc. 2026-14).

When was Maryland's community nomination deadline?

Maryland's published community/local input deadline was August 7, 2026 (counties). That is the state's internal window, separate from the federal deadline.

Do rural Opportunity Zones in Maryland get a bigger tax break?

Yes. Under OZ 2.0, gains invested in a qualified rural opportunity fund get a 30% basis step-up after five years instead of 10%, per IRS Notice 2026-55. Maryland has 77 rural eligible tracts in the IRS appendix.
