Arizona's flat 2.5% income tax, explained

Arizona (AZ) taxes income at a single flat 2.5% rate rather than graduated brackets, so — unlike the federal system — every dollar of Arizona taxable income is taxed at the same rate. That makes the state calculation simple, but it is separate from federal income tax and from Arizona sales tax.

What to know about Arizona tax

  • Arizona moved to a single flat income-tax rate of 2.5% — among the lowest flat rates in the country.
  • The 2.5% applies to taxable income after Arizona’s own deductions, which differ from the federal standard deduction.
  • Local jurisdictions add a transaction privilege (sales) tax on top of the state base, so combined rates run well above the state figure.
