Georgia Income Tax Overview

Georgia transitioned from a progressive income tax to a flat rate of 5.39% effective 2025 under HB 1015, with plans to reduce it further to 4.99% by 2029.

Georgia's state minimum wage is $5.15/hr, but since most employers are covered by the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, the federal minimum of $7.25/hr effectively applies to the vast majority of workers.

The state sales tax of 4% is supplemented by local option sales taxes (LOST, SPLOST, ESPLOST) that add 3-4% in most counties, creating combined rates of 7-8%.

Georgia provides its own standard deduction separate from federal amounts. The state has no local income taxes, disability insurance, or paid family leave programs.

Georgia's Homestead Exemption reduces assessed value for owner-occupied primary residences. The average effective property tax rate is approximately 0.87%.
