Learn moreAlabama's graduated income tax, functionally near-flat for most earners
Alabama taxes income at 2% up to $500 (single) / $1,000 (MFJ), 4% on the next bracket, and 5% above $3,000 (single) / $6,000 (MFJ). Alabama is one of only three states allowing full deduction of federal income tax paid, meaningfully lowering the effective rate for many filers (roughly 4.08% effective at $100K income, per one 2026 aggregator).
