How Arizona paycheck tax works
Arizona uses a flat state income tax applied directly to gross taxable wages, with no standard deduction or personal exemption in the withholding calculation. Employees elect their withholding percentage on Form A-4 (choices from 0.5% to 3.5%); if no A-4 is filed, the employer applies a default rate of 2.0%. Because the rate is applied to gross wages, the amount withheld scales directly with pay.
The calculator annualizes your pay and applies Arizona's 2026 flat-rate withholding on top of federal income tax and FICA. Treat the result as a close estimate; your employer may withhold from per-period tables that differ slightly.
