Arkansas cut its top rate to 3.7% for 2026, its fourth cut in four years. Brackets run from 0% up to 3.7%, and the same schedule applies to single and married filers. A separate two-tier table replaces this one for taxable income above $94,700, taxing the first $4,700 at 2% and the rest at 3.7%. Social Security is exempt.
Note on 2026 figures: The 3.7% top rate was enacted in the May 2026 special session (SB1 / HB1001), retroactive to January 1 2026, and applies to the full 2026 tax year. Some published tables still show the pre-cut 3.9% rate; the 3.7% figure is the correct current rate.
