Is the 401K plan taxed when you retire?
The two main retirement accounts available to workers in the US are 401(k)s and Roth IRAs. The two differ in when a account holder is taxed on the funds they enter or withdraw.
A 401(k) requires the worker to pay tax on benefits as they are withdrawn during retirement, while, a Roth IRA, taxes benefits as they enter the account.
So, to the question, are 401(k)s taxed when you retire? Yes they are.
There are various private retirement accounts available to workers and one of the main differences is how the funds allocated to them are taxed.

What are the new 401k and IRA limit increases for 2023 and how do they affect your pension?
Announced on Friday, the IRS will increase the contribution limit to 401(k)s by $2,000 to $22,500 for 2023.
Workers who are saving for retirement with 401(k), 403(b), most 457 plans, and the Thrift Savings Plan can contribute up to $22,500 to those plans in 2023.
For those saving in a traditional or Roth IRA the 2023 limit on contributions rises to $$6,500 next year, a $500 increase.
The “catch-up” contribution limit for employees age 50 or older who are involved in these plans also increases from $6,500 to $7,500 for 2023 for a total limit of $30,000.
What are the new 401k retirement contribution limits?
One of the most popular retirement plans in the United States is the 401(k) plan, which can offer upfront tax benefits or tax-free distributions when you retire. Each year there are limits to the amount of contribution an individual can make, and it has risen considerably as a result of the sustained high inflation. 
Named after a section of the US Internal Revenue Code, a 401(k) is a retirement savings and investing plan offered by many American employers. Contributions are automatically taken out of a worker’s paycheck and invested in funds selected by the employee from a list given to them by the plan administrator.

At 8.7 percent, it is the fourth largest in the history of the annual cost-of-living adjustments and the biggest since 1981.
The average recipient of retired worker benefits will see a monthly payment of $1,827 an increase of $146. That will translate into an extra $1,752 over the course of 2023. The Social Security Administration will begin sending out notices in the mail to beneficiaries of exactly what their monthly payments will be next year.
