What You Should Know

Alaska funds state government primarily through oil revenues and has no state sales tax, though some local municipalities levy their own sales taxes (typically 1%–7.5%). Property taxes are collected at the local level. Alaska also distributes an annual Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) to residents from its oil wealth fund.

Residents still owe federal income tax and FICA taxes on their earnings. The PFD payment is considered taxable income for federal purposes.
