About Hawaii's rates
Hawaii has the most income tax brackets of any U.S. state — 12 brackets ranging from 1.4% to 11%. The top rate of 11% applies at just $200,000 for single filers and $400,000 for married, making Hawaii's high-income tax burden second only to California. The large number of narrowly-spaced brackets means the tax burden phases in more gradually than in states with fewer, wider brackets, but middle-income earners reach relatively high rates quickly.
Planning note
If you're considering a move to Hawaii or working remotely for a mainland employer while living in Hawaii, model your state tax carefully — Hawaii taxes all resident income regardless of source, and the combination of 11% top rate, low bracket thresholds, and the GET (General Excise Tax) can surprise new residents. There is no special remote-worker exclusion.
