Arizona income taxes

Arizona’s income tax structure is a flat rate of 2.5%.

The state eschews a distinct payroll tax, but employers aren’t entirely free from obligations. They contribute to a state unemployment insurance tax, providing a safety net for individuals facing job loss.

Arizona’s approach to standard deductions and exemptions is an exercise in generosity. With a standard deduction of $12,200 for single filers and $24,400 for joint filers, along with tax credits for dependents and the elderly, it offers taxpayers a degree of financial respite.

Calculate your income tax in Arizona

Calculating your Arizona state income tax is similar to the steps (except the state payroll formulas) we listed on our Federal income tax calculator:

  1. Determine your filing status
  2. Work out your adjusted gross income [Gross income − Retirement contributions = Adjusted gross income]
  3. Calculate your state taxable income [Adjusted gross income − Standard/Itemized deductions = State taxable income]
  4. Figure out your state/local tax liability [State taxable income × State tax rate = State tax liability]
