Frequently Asked Questions
How does Guam income tax work (GTIT Mirror System)?
Under 48 U.S. Code § 1421i (the Guam Organic Act), Guam operates a 'Mirror Code' system where the US Internal Revenue Code is mirrored directly as territorial law. Taxpayers pay income taxes to the Guam Department of Revenue and Taxation (DRT) rather than the federal IRS.
What are the FICA payroll deductions in Guam?
FICA is deducted exactly as in the 50 US states: 6.2% for Social Security on wages up to $168,600 (for 2024), and 1.45% for Medicare (uncapped), totaling 7.65% for employee withholding.
Do Guam residents file a federal tax return with the IRS?
Bona fide residents of Guam whose only income is from Guam sources file Form 1040 exclusively with the Guam Department of Revenue and Taxation. They do not file with the federal IRS unless they have US mainland or foreign-sourced income.
What is the standard deduction in Guam?
Because Guam mirrors the Internal Revenue Code, the 2024 standard deductions are identical: $14,600 for Single filers, $29,200 for Married Filing Jointly, and $21,900 for Head of Household.
Does Guam have a separate municipal or local city tax?
No, there are no municipal, village, or county income taxes in Guam. The only mandatory employee payroll deductions are federal FICA and the Guam Territorial Income Tax (GTIT).
