How Utah taxes your paycheck

Utah applies a single flat rate to taxable wages, with a personal exemption taken as a deduction before the rate applies.

Taxable income aboveRateIncome above (married, joint)Rate
$04.50%$04.50%

One rate applies to every dollar, so the filing status does not change the rate itself.

Standard deduction: $966 for single filers, $1,932 for joint filers.

Utah taxes wage income at a single 4.5% across every dollar. That places the top rate 28th among the 42 taxing jurisdictions compared here, a group that excludes the nine with no wage tax.

Earnings and income are 2024 ACS one-year estimates covering everyone with earnings, so part-time and part-year workers pull this median below a full-time salary. State tax figures come from the state revenue department.
