Alaska imposes no individual income tax — its income tax reaches only corporate income — so annuity income is not taxed at the state level.

Who regulates annuities in Alaska
Fixed annuities are insurance products, so they are overseen by the state insurance department rather than by the SEC. The department licenses the carriers and the producers who sell them, and it takes consumer complaints.
The Alaska guaranty association
Every state has a life and health insurance guaranty association that steps in when a member insurer fails. Coverage terms are set by state law and differ by state and by product. Contact the association directly for what applies to a specific contract.
