State Personal Taxes

Virginia

Virginia residents pay state individual income and retail sales & use tax.

Individual Income Tax

The Virginia individual income tax rate is 2 percent on the first $3,000 of taxable income increasing to 5.75 percent of income above $17,000. Generally, an employer who pays wages to one or more employees must deduct and withhold state income tax from those wages.

For more information, contact the Virginia Department of Taxation at (804) 367-8031. 

Retail Sales and Use Tax

The sales and use tax is 5 percent, of which the state returns 1 percent to the localities.  When a seller does not collect the sales tax from the purchaser, the purchaser is required to pay a use tax on the purchase unless the use of the property is exempt.
