How Wyoming taxes your paycheck in 2026

Wyoming is one of nine states that levy no state income tax on wages. Your paycheck is reduced only by federal income tax and FICA. On top of that, every Wyoming worker pays federal income tax plus 6.2% Social Security (on the first $184,500 of 2026 wages) and 1.45% Medicare with no cap. This calculator applies all of it at once, so the take-home figure is the real one.

What Wyoming charges instead

Wyoming has no personal income tax and no corporate income tax, and consistently ranks among the lowest total tax burdens in the country. Revenue comes largely from severance taxes on mineral, oil and gas extraction, which shifts the burden onto resource industries rather than residents.

The state sales tax is 4%, among the lowest, with counties adding up to about 2%. Property taxes are also comparatively modest.

Working across the Colorado or Montana line

Wyoming has no reciprocity agreements, because it has no income tax to trade away. If you live in Cheyenne and work in Colorado, Colorado taxes that income at 4.40% — and being a Wyoming resident does not exempt you. Where you physically work is what determines withholding.

What living in Wyoming saves you

State income tax a single filer would owe on a $75,000 salary elsewhere — money a Wyoming worker keeps outright:

Colorado$2,592$2,592
Montana$2,877$2,877
Utah$2,409$2,409
Wyoming$0—

Income tax only. Sales and property taxes claw back part of this in most no-income-tax states.

Federal taxes on top

Every Wyoming worker also pays federal income tax plus 6.2% Social Security and 1.45% Medicare. Those rules are identical in all 50 states — see the main paycheck calculator for how FICA, the wage base, pre-tax deductions and FICA-exempt occupations work.

Frequently asked questions

How much state income tax will I pay in Wyoming in 2026?
None. Wyoming levies no state income tax on wages, so your paycheck is reduced only by federal income tax and FICA.
What is the Wyoming state tax rate?
There is no Wyoming income tax rate on wages — the state does not tax earned income.
Is this Wyoming paycheck calculator accurate?
It applies the official 2026 Wyoming rates together with current IRS federal figures, so it closely estimates your actual tax liability. Your employer's withholding follows your W-4 and state withholding certificate, so a single pay stub may differ slightly — any gap is settled as a refund or bill when you file.
Is Wyoming really tax free?
There is no Wyoming income tax on your wages, so your paycheck keeps the full amount after federal tax and FICA. The state raises revenue through sales and property taxes instead.
If I live in Wyoming but work in another state, do I still pay no tax?
Not necessarily. Withholding generally follows the state where you physically perform the work, so wages earned in a state with an income tax are usually taxable there even if you live in Wyoming. Days genuinely worked from home in Wyoming are normally Wyoming-sourced. Keep a record of where you work if you split time.
How is my Wyoming take-home pay calculated?
Start with gross pay, subtract any pre-tax deductions such as 401(k) or health premiums, then subtract federal income tax, 6.2% Social Security (on wages up to $184,500 in 2026) and 1.45% Medicare. Because Wyoming levies no income tax on wages, there is no state income tax step — what remains is your take-home pay.
Do 401(k) contributions reduce my Wyoming taxes?
They reduce your federal income tax, but not Social Security or Medicare — FICA is charged before traditional 401(k) money comes out. Since Wyoming has no income tax on wages, there is no additional state saving to capture.
Is a bonus or overtime taxed differently in Wyoming?
Not ultimately. Employers commonly withhold bonuses at a flat federal supplemental rate of 22%, which can make a bonus cheque look heavily taxed. That is a withholding convention, not a separate tax — at filing time all wages run through the same brackets, and any over-withholding comes back as a refund.
