Missouri Immediate Annuity (SPIA) Rates & Tax Guide
Missouri fully exempts Social Security and offers retirees a cost of living about 12% below the national average. With roughly 1.1 million residents age 65 and older, Missouri is an active market for guaranteed lifetime income.
Key Facts for Missouri Annuity Buyers
Tax Treatment of Annuity Income in Missouri
Missouri exempts Social Security and offers a public pension exemption, but private pension and annuity income is largely taxed as ordinary income (a limited income-tested private pension exemption applies). Federal taxes still apply, but there is no premium tax on annuity purchases in Missouri.
Remember that federal taxes still apply regardless of your state. For non-qualified annuities, only the earnings portion is taxed (the "exclusion ratio" shelters your original investment). For qualified annuities funded with pre-tax money, 100% of each payment is taxable at the federal level. Read our complete tax guide for details.
Is Your Annuity Protected in Missouri?
Annuity guarantees are backed first by the issuing insurance company, which is why we only publish carriers rated A or better by AM Best. Behind that stands Missouri's life and health insurance guaranty association, a state-mandated safety net funded by insurers doing business in the state.
If an insurer licensed in Missouri were ever to fail, the guaranty association protects annuity benefits up to $250,000 in present value per contract owner, per insurance company.
Planning to invest more than $250,000? The standard approach is to split your premium across two or more highly rated carriers so each contract stays fully within the guaranty limit. Because we quote 8 A-rated carriers side by side, structuring a multi-carrier purchase is straightforward — and often captures the best rate at each company. See how this works for larger amounts in our guide to $500,000 annuity payouts.
Buying a SPIA in Missouri: What to Know
- Free-look period. Missouri law gives you a free-look window (at least 10 days, longer for some buyers) after receiving a new annuity contract, during which you can cancel for a full refund.
- Licensed agents only. Annuities in Missouri must be sold by an insurance professional licensed in the state, and recommendations must meet best-interest / suitability standards.
- Our rate tables are not state-specific. The figures in our rate tables pool quotes run for clients in many states, so read them as a guide for Missouri, not as a Missouri quote. Your own quote is run for your state. The after-tax income you keep depends on Missouri tax rules.
- Quotes lock for 7–14 days. Rates reprice frequently — compare all carriers in one sitting, then lock the best one. Start with our SPIA guide or go straight to a free Missouri quote.
