Working remotely in accounting from Missouri
Two separate metros each hold sizable corporate finance functions. St. Louis leans defense manufacturing, agribusiness, and healthcare, while Kansas City leans logistics, engineering, and financial services.
Major hiring areas in the state include St. Louis, Kansas City, Springfield, Columbia. Because these roles are remote, you are not limited to employers headquartered nearby: a Missouri resident can work for a company in any state, which is what makes the remote market worth watching.
State income tax if you work remotely from Missouri
Missouri taxes wage income on a graduated scale, and Kansas City and St. Louis add a local earnings tax.
If you live in Missouri and work for an employer based elsewhere, you generally owe Missouri income tax on those earnings, and your employer may need to register for withholding in the state. A tax professional can confirm how this applies to you.
