Michigan State Income Tax Guide (2026)

Michigan uses a flat 4.25% income tax applied to federal AGI, offset by personal exemptions that phase out at higher incomes.

1. Michigan Flat Tax Rate

Michigan applies a single flat income tax rate of 4.25% to taxable income. Unlike progressive states, the same rate applies whether you are an entry-level worker or a high earner, which makes the calculation straightforward.

2. Deductions and Conformance

Michigan grants a personal exemption of $5,400 per filer rather than a standard deduction. Pre-tax 401(k) contributions, HSA contributions, and employer health premiums reduce your Michigan taxable income.

3. Local Taxes to Watch

Some Michigan cities (e.g. Detroit, Grand Rapids) levy a local income tax of 1-2.4%, which this calculator does not include.

Compare With Other Flat-Tax States

Michigan is one of several states using a flat income tax rate. Compare your take-home pay across flat-tax states: Illinois (4.95%), Pennsylvania (3.07%), Georgia (4.99%), North Carolina (3.99%), Arizona (2.5%), Colorado (4.4%), Indiana (3.05%), Iowa (3.8%), Kentucky (3.5%), Utah (4.55%), Mississippi (4.7%), Idaho (5.8%).
