Arkansas tax details
- MID-YEAR CHANGE: HB 1001 (May 2026 special session) cut the top rate from 3.9% to 3.7% retroactive to Jan 1, 2026; DFA reissued the 2026 withholding formula with 3.7%.
- Brackets are from the DFA 2026 withholding formula (same for all filing statuses; MFJ brackets are not doubled). They apply up to $94,700 net taxable income; the low brackets are then phased out, and from about $97,600 tax = 3.7% x income - $79.90 (about 2% on the first $4,700, 3.7% above).
