California’s proposed 2026 Billionaire Tax Act could create significant tax and reporting considerations for individuals and trusts with substantial net worth.

In Part Two of our series on Proposition 40, we examine the proposed tax rate, available payment methods, and the reporting requirements taxpayers could face. The proposal generally provides for a 5% one-time tax, with special treatment for certain individuals whose net worth falls between $1 billion and $1.1 billion.
