How it works

Yukon uses the same Basic Personal Amount as the federal government ($16,129), unlike every province, which sets its own. Yukon’s tax brackets range from 6.4% up to 15% for taxable income over $500,000 — a notably high threshold before the top rate applies.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Yukon use the federal Basic Personal Amount?

Yukon is the only Canadian jurisdiction that mirrors the federal Basic Personal Amount exactly, rather than setting its own separate figure.

What is Yukon’s tax rate?

Four brackets from 6.4% up to 15%, with the top rate only applying above $500,000 of taxable income.

Is Yukon’s tax rate low compared with other territories?

Yukon’s top rate of 15% is a little higher than the Northwest Territories’ 14.05%, but the $500,000 threshold before it applies is much higher than most other jurisdictions use for their top bracket.

How accurate is this for Yukon specifically?

It uses Yukon’s published 2025 tax brackets and Basic Personal Amount. See the main Canada take-home pay calculator for all provinces and territories.
