Arizona Paycheck Calculator

Arizona works differently from every other state: your employer withholds the flat percentage you pick on Form A-4 (0.5% to 3.5% of gross taxable wages, 2.0% if you never filed one), not an amount from a tax table. Your actual Arizona tax is 2.5% of income after the standard deduction, settled when you file. The calculator shows both.

Frequently asked questions

What Arizona withholding percentage should I choose?

If your only income is wages, a rate near your effective tax (2.5% of income minus the standard deduction, divided by gross pay) avoids a big refund or bill. For many single filers earning $40,000–$80,000 that is about 2.0%.

Is Arizona state tax 2.5%?

Yes, Arizona has a flat 2.5% individual income tax for 2026. What comes out of each paycheck, however, is the A-4 percentage you elected.

Do Phoenix or Tucson charge a city income tax?

No. Arizona cities do not tax wages; they raise money through sales (transaction privilege) taxes instead.
