Other Alaska taxes to know
Alaska has no state income tax and no state sales tax, so most of the taxes you pay are set by your borough or city.
- Permanent Fund Dividend: $1,000 per eligible resident in 2026, plus a $200 energy relief payment. Alaska doesn't tax it, but an adult's dividend is federal taxable income.
- Sales tax: No state sales tax. Many boroughs and cities levy their own, at rates up to 7% in 2024, and where a city and its borough both tax a sale, you pay both. Anchorage and Fairbanks have no general sales tax.
- Property tax: Levied only by the local governments that choose to: 15 of the 19 organized boroughs and unified municipalities in 2024. Homeowners 65 and older and qualifying disabled veterans are exempt on the first $150,000 of assessed value.
- Estate and inheritance tax: None. Alaska stopped collecting an estate tax in 2005.
