Frequently asked questions
Does Wyoming have a state income tax?
Wyoming levies no state individual income tax.
Do I need to file a Wyoming state income tax return?
Because Wyoming has no state income tax, residents are generally not required to file a state income tax return. However, you may still owe federal income tax and must file a federal return if required by IRS rules.
Does living in Wyoming mean I pay no income tax at all?
No — you still owe federal income tax to the IRS on your income. Wyoming simply does not impose an additional state-level income tax. If you earn income in another state, that state may require you to file a nonresident return.
Can I save on taxes by moving to Wyoming?
Residents of Wyoming avoid state income tax, which can be meaningful for high earners. However, a full tax comparison should include all state and local taxes (property, sales, excise), not just income tax. Consult a tax professional before relocating for tax reasons.
