There are three tiers of the Manitoba tax brackets system, starting at 10.8% for income up to $47,564, increasing to 12.75% for income between $47,564 and $101,200, and then topping out at 17.4% for earnings above $101,200.
Manitoba follows a progressive, tiered system similar to other areas of the country, where those with higher incomes pay higher rates.
Since these income brackets are adjusted each year to account for inflation, the tax thresholds in 2025 are different from what you may remember from 2024, and will change again in 2026.
Key Takeaways
- Manitoba’s tax rates are 10.8% (up to $47,564), 12.75% ($47,564 to $101,200), and 17.4% ($101,200 and up).
- An online income tax calculator can help you determine your tax rate.
- You need to add your provincial tax rate to your federal tax rate to find out your total rate.
- Tax thresholds are adjusted annually for inflation.
Manitoba tax brackets for 2025
When doing your tax return due on April 30, 2025, the Manitoba tax brackets are as follows:
| Portion of your taxable income | Tax rate for 2024 tax year |
|---|---|
| $47,564 or less | 10.8% |
| More than $47,564 up to $101,200 | 12.75% |
| $101,200 and up | 17.4% |
Note that you’ll only pay the higher tax bracket for the amount of your income that falls into that bracket. So if you earned $60,000 in 2024, only $12,436 would be taxed at 12.75% – the rest would still be taxed at 10.8%
For residents who are trying to figure out their income to determine which Manitoba tax bracket they fall into, you'll need to add up all your forms of income, including:
- Employment income
- Self-employment income
- Earned sales commissions
- Earnings from lotteries or gambling
- Dividends paid
- Tips and gratuities
- Profits from selling your home or assets
- Interest on savings
- Pension amounts
- Investment earnings
- Any financial gifts.
Federal tax rates combined with Manitoba tax rates
There are federal taxes to consider too, so you'll have to add your Manitoba tax rates to what you owe the federal government.
Here's what the federal tax rate looks like for 2025, plus what your total rate looks like including provincial taxes:
| Taxable income for 2025 (federal) | Federal tax rate for 2025 | Total Manitoba tax rate |
|---|---|---|
| Up to $57,375 | 15% | * First $47,564: 25.8% * From $47,564 - $57,375: 27.75% |
| Between $57,375 and $114,750 | 20.5% | * From $57,375 - $101,200: 33.25% * From $101,200 - $114,750: 37.9% |
| Between $114,750 and $177,882 | 26% | 43.4% |
| Between $177,882 and $253,414 | 29% | 46.4% |
| $253,414 and up | 33% | 50.4% |
Once you've identified which of the federal brackets you fall into and have applied the tax rate to your income to figure out what you owe, you'll need to add that number to what you owe for Manitoba taxes.
