Utah's flat income tax

Utah taxes all taxable income at the same 4.5% rate. Because the rate doesn't rise with income, your state tax grows in a straight line with your pay. Your effective state rate is still lower than 4.5% because of deductions and exemptions.

On a $75,000 salary, Utah ranks #35 of 51 for take-home pay among the 50 states and D.C. A single filer keeps $58,451 a year, or 77.9% of gross. See the full ranking in take-home pay by state, or browse all state paycheck calculators.

State figures are estimates of your annual Utah tax liability, spread evenly across paychecks. Your employer's withholding also depends on your Utah withholding certificate, if your state uses one, and can differ slightly.
