Vermont Income Tax 2026

Vermont has a graduated income tax for 2026. The standard deduction is $7,800 (single) / $15,600 (married filing jointly). Vermont graduated 4-bracket individual income tax for 2026: 3.35%, 6.60%, 7.60%, 8.75% (rates unchanged for years; thresholds inflation-indexed annually via the VT Dept of Taxes 2026 VT Rate Schedules, released Dec 22 2025). Single thresholds ($45,400/$110,050/$229,550) are well-attested across 2026 sources and internally consistent. MFJ thresholds shown ($75,850/$183,400/$279,450) are an ~1.67x-scaling APPROXIMATION, NOT official - Vermont's MFJ cutoffs are independently indexed, so verify against the official 2026 VT Rate Schedule PDF before production. STANDARD DEDUCTION corrected: prior $7,400/$14,850 were 2024 figures. Official VT 2025 standard deduction = $7,650 single / $15,300 MFJ (personal exemption $5,300; +$1,250 add-on per spouse age 65+/blind). For 2026, VT's published withholding exemption allowance rose to $5,400 (~+1.9%), so the 2026 standard deduction is ~$7,800 single / $15,600 MFJ (use $7,650/$15,300 as the official confirmed floor if the exact 2026 SD is needed). Personal exemption ~$5,400/person for 2026. NOTE: Vermont's filing-year RATE SCHEDULE brackets differ from its PAYROLL WITHHOLDING tables (withholding has a separate $3,925 single zero-bracket) - the figures here are filing brackets for Form IN-111. No local/city income taxes. Social Security fully exempt for filers with federal AGI below $50,000 (single)/$65,000 (MFJ), phasing out above. Vermont offers exclusions for some military/CSRS/federal retirement and a capped other-retirement-income exclusion. VT taxable income starts from federal taxable income with VT additions/subtractions.
