How Arizona Taxes Affect Your Paycheck
Arizona uses a flat 2.5% state income tax, making state withholding relatively simple for most employees.
Arizona does not impose local city or county income taxes on wages, so paycheck math is generally federal withholding plus FICA plus flat state tax.
Your exact withholding still depends on filing status and any pre-tax deductions that reduce taxable wages.

| All taxable income | 2.50% |
Other Arizona Payroll Taxes
Arizona does not have broad local wage taxes or a separate employee-paid state disability payroll deduction. Benefits elections and federal withholding setup typically drive paycheck changes.
Federal Payroll Taxes Still Apply
No matter which state you live in, paychecks include federal income tax withholding plus FICA taxes. For most workers in 2026, FICA equals 6.2% Social Security (up to the wage base) and 1.45% Medicare on all wages.
Higher earners may also pay Additional Medicare Tax (0.9%) above the federal threshold. This page's example uses standard single-filer assumptions for a quick benchmark.
