State tax

Utah income tax

Utah taxes all taxable income at a single flat rate. The 2026 General Session lowered the rate from 4.5% to 4.45% for tax year 2026, and employers withhold at that rate after Utah's base allowance.

Flat rate — no brackets
Taxable incomeRate
All taxable income4.45%
Utah's rate does not vary by income or filing status. Instead of a standard deduction, Utah gives a taxpayer credit that phases out as income rises, which the withholding formula approximates with a base allowance.

Source: Utah Code § 59-10-104 (effective Jan. 1, 2026); Utah State Tax Commission, Publication 14. Paychecks are withheld with Utah's own withholding formula, which approximates these rates over a full year.
