For the 2025 tax year in the United States (the return you file in 2026), the standard federal income tax deadline for most individual taxpayers is April 15, 2026.

Quick Scoop

Main deadline for 2025 taxes

  • The regular due date to file your 2025 federal individual income tax return and pay any tax owed is April 15, 2026.
  • This date also serves as the usual last day to request an automatic filing extension using Form 4868.

In simple terms: income you earn during calendar year 2025 is generally reported on a return that must be filed by April 15, 2026, unless you get an extension.

Extensions and special cases (brief)

  • If you request an extension, you can usually extend the filing deadline to around October 15, 2026, but any payment is still due April 15, 2026.
  • U.S. citizens and residents living abroad often get an automatic 2‑month extra filing time (to about June 15, 2026), though interest on unpaid tax still starts after April 15.

Trending context for 2025 tax season

  • The 2025 filing season (for 2024 income) was announced to start in late January 2025, and similar late‑January openings are expected to continue as the IRS modernizes its online and Direct File tools.
  • Many tax software providers highlight filing earlier than April to avoid last‑minute rushes, tech issues, and potential delays with refunds.

TL;DR: For “when is taxes due 2025,” if you mean the U.S. federal deadline to file your 2025 return, it’s April 15, 2026 for most people, with possible extensions if you file the right forms or qualify as an expat.
