About the Ohio paycheck calculator

Ohio moved to a flat individual income tax of 2.75% in 2026, and the first $26,050 of income is not taxed at all. This calculator applies the personal exemption, exempts that first band of income, then taxes the rest at 2.75%. Be aware that most Ohio cities also levy a municipal income tax of roughly 2%–2.5%, which is separate from state tax and not included here.

Ohio paycheck FAQ

What is the Ohio income tax rate?

Ohio uses a flat 2.75% rate in 2026 on nonbusiness income above $26,050. Income at or below $26,050 is not subject to state income tax.

Do Ohio cities charge their own income tax?

Yes. Most Ohio municipalities levy a local income tax, commonly around 2%–2.5%, on wages earned or where you live. That is separate from the state tax shown here.

Does Ohio tax 401(k) contributions?

No. Ohio follows the federal treatment, so pre-tax 401(k) contributions reduce your Ohio taxable income as well.
