Minnesota income taxes
Minnesota has a progressive state income tax. It features four brackets with rates from 5.35% to 9.85%. The state’s highest rate, 9.85%, is one of the top ten highest state income tax rates in the nation. These rates apply to both individual income and the income of estates and trusts.
Minnesota does not have a state payroll tax. However, like all states, it does require employers to withhold federal payroll taxes.
Minnesota allows taxpayers to claim a standard deduction or itemize their deductions. The standard deduction amounts vary depending on filing status. Additionally, the state offers personal and dependent exemptions.
Calculate your income tax in Minnesota
Calculating your Minnesota state income tax is similar to the steps we listed on our Federal income tax calculator:

- Calculate your state taxable income [Adjusted gross income − (Standard/Itemized deductions + Exemptions) = State taxable income]
- Figure out your state/local tax liability [State taxable income × State tax rate = State tax liability]
