The Hamiltonian describing the anomalous Zeeman effect for the hydrogen atom on noncommutative (NC) phase space is studied using the nonrelativistic limit of the Dirac equation. To preserve gauge invariance, space noncommutativity must be dropped. By using first-order perturbation theory, the correction to the energy is calculated for the case of a weak external magnetic field. We also obtained the orbital and spin g-factors on the NC phase space. We show that the experimental value for the spin g-factor puts an upper bound on the magnitude of the momentum NC parameter of the order of [Formula: see text], 34 μ eV /c. On the other hand, the experimental value for the spin g-factor was used to establish a correction introduced by NC phase space to the presently accepted value of Planck's constant with an uncertainty of 2 part in 1035.
