EE bonds

Series EE savings bonds are a low-risk way to save money. They earn interest regularly for 30 years (or until you cash them if you do that before 30 years).

For EE bonds you buy now, we guarantee that the bond will double in value in 20 years, even if we have to add money at 20 years to make that happen.

Current Interest Rate

For EE bonds issued May 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025.

EE bonds at a glance

Some paper EE bonds that we sold between 2001 and 2011 say “Patriot Bond” on them. They were a special edition to fund anti-terrorism. Everything about EE bonds applies to these Patriot Bonds.

Interest is compounded semiannually, meaning that every 6 months we apply the bond’s interest rate to a new principal. The new principal is the sum of the prior principal and the interest earned in the previous 6 months. Thus, your bond’s value grows both because it earns interest and because the principal gets bigger.

Since May 2005, new EE bonds earn a fixed rate of interest that is set when you buy the bond. They earn that interest for the first 20 years. We may adjust the rate or the way they earn interest after 20 years.

For older EE bonds, rules concerning interest may have varied.

• May 2005 and later
• May 1997 through April 2005
• May 1995 through April 1997
• Before May 1995

Electronic EE bonds: We pay automatically when the bond matures (if you haven’t cashed it before then).

Paper EE bonds: You must submit the paper bond to cash it.

However, if you cash in the bond in less than 5 years, you lose the last 3 months of interest. For example, if you cash in the bond after 18 months, you get the first 15 months of interest.

State and local income tax: No

Federal estate, gift, and excise taxes; state estate or inheritance taxes: Yes

You choose whether to report each year’s earnings or wait to report all the earnings when you get the money for the bond.

If you use the money for qualified higher education expenses, you may not have to pay tax on the earnings.
