Personal income tax is imposed at a rate of 1.5 percent on the first $1,000 of taxable income and increases at a rate of .5 percent for every $1,000 increment up to $9,000. The tax rate is 6 percent on Missouri taxable income exceeding $9,000. The state provides tax tables for exact calculations based on allowable credits and standard deductions.

Cities, counties and certain districts may also impose local sales taxes as well, so the amount of tax sellers collect from the purchaser depends on the combined state and local rate at the location of the seller. Use taxes are similar in rate but they are the responsibility of the individual taxpayer and apply to purchases of good outside of Missouri such as catalog or Internet sales that were not previously taxed and will be &#8220;used&#8221; in Missouri.
