North Dakota Income Tax Overview

North Dakota has one of the lowest income tax burdens in the nation. Income under $48,475 is taxed at 0% for single filers — meaning most North Dakota workers pay no state income tax at all. Above that threshold, the rate is just 1.95%, rising to 2.5% above $244,825. North Dakota's standard deduction mirrors the federal amount ($16,100 for single filers). No North Dakota city charges a local income tax. North Dakota's oil and gas production has historically funded much of state government, allowing very low income tax rates. Compared to neighboring Minnesota (up to 9.85%) and South Dakota (no income tax), North Dakota sits closer to South Dakota for most earners. Fargo and Bismarck workers effectively pay 0% state income tax on average salaries.
