New York income tax
New York's personal income tax is progressive, with nine brackets. The rates below are the schedule enacted for taxable years beginning after 2025 and before 2027 — that is, the 2026 tax year — and they are lower than in 2025: Chapter 59 of the Laws of 2025 reduced the rates across the lower and middle brackets. Rates apply to New York taxable income, not to gross wages. The table is the schedule for resident unmarried individuals (single) and married filing separately; other filing statuses use wider brackets at the same rates.
| Taxable income | Rate |
|---|---|
| $0 – $8,500 | 3.90% |
| $8,500 – $11,700 | 4.40% |
| $11,700 – $13,900 | 5.15% |
| $13,900 – $80,650 | 5.40% |
| $80,650 – $215,400 | 5.90% |
| $215,400 – $1,077,550 | 6.85% |
| $1,077,550 – $5,000,000 | 9.65% |
| $5,000,000 – $25,000,000 | 10.30% |
| Over $25,000,000 | 10.90% |
