Missouri income tax, explained
Missouri has an inflation-indexed graduated income tax. The first $1,348 of taxable income is taxed at 0%, then rates rise in small steps to a top rate of 4.7% on income over about $9,436 (2026). Missouri starts from your federal taxable income, so the federal standard deduction flows through.
Missouri also lets you deduct part of your federal income tax (a percentage that shrinks as income rises, capped at $5,000 single / $10,000 joint) — this calculator does not include that deduction, so your actual Missouri tax may be a bit lower than shown. Kansas City and St. Louis levy a 1% local earnings tax that is also not included here.

Side-by-side comparisons
Estimate only — not tax advice. This calculator gives an approximate take-home figure based on 2026 federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare (FICA), and, where shown, state income tax. It does not account for tax credits (such as the Child Tax Credit or EITC), the Alternative Minimum Tax, preferential capital-gains rates, or itemized deductions beyond the standard deduction. Your actual paycheck may differ. Consult a qualified tax professional for advice specific to your situation.
