Trump Accounts in Wyoming: State Tax Treatment

By Forrest Baumhover, CFP®, EA · Last verified September 2, 2026

Whether Wyoming taxes a Trump Account's growth and distributions the way the IRS does — checked against Wyoming's own conformity law, not a national summary.

Does Wyoming follow the federal rule?

Wyoming does not impose a personal income tax on wages, salaries, or individual investment income. Because there is no state income tax base to begin with, the federal treatment of a Trump Account under IRC §530A — tax-deferred growth, ordinary income tax on distributions after age 18 — has nothing to conform to or diverge from at the state level for an individual beneficiary living in Wyoming.

What this means for a Trump Account in Wyoming

A family funding a Trump Account for a child in Wyoming follows the federal rules described on the Trump Accounts hub with no separate state income tax question to answer.

A note on this determination

Wyoming levies no individual or corporate income tax; this statute exists chiefly to bar local income taxes rather than to impose a state one. Conformity is moot.
