Mississippi Income Tax Overview

Mississippi has a flat income tax rate of 4% — down from a tiered system with higher rates, as part of ongoing tax reform. Mississippi is one of the lowest-cost states to live in nationally, so the effective burden on workers' purchasing power is often lower than the nominal rate suggests. The standard deduction is $2,300 for single filers, which is on the lower end. Mississippi has no local city income taxes. Compared to neighboring Alabama (up to 5%), Tennessee (no income tax), and Louisiana (3% flat), Mississippi's 4% sits in the middle. Mississippi is continuing to reduce its income tax rate under recently enacted legislation, with further cuts planned in subsequent years.
