Utah levies a flat 4.55% income tax on all taxable income, applied to federal AGI with a standard deduction matching federal levels.
1. Utah Flat Tax Rate
Utah applies a single flat income tax rate of 4.55% 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.

For 2026, the Utah standard deduction is $16,100 for single filers and $32,200 for married couples filing jointly. Pre-tax 401(k) contributions, HSA contributions, and employer health premiums reduce your Utah taxable income.
