How Ohio paycheck taxes work
Ohio uses a graduated income tax with 2 brackets and rates from 2.75% to 2.75% for 2026 — the more you earn, the higher the marginal rate on each additional dollar, similar to how federal tax brackets work.
Ohio’s 800+ municipalities levy their own local income tax (commonly 1–3%), not included here.
What else affects your Ohio paycheck
Every paycheck, regardless of state, also has federal income tax and FICA (6.2% Social Security + 1.45% Medicare) withheld. Ohio’s state tax is calculated on top of those federal deductions.
Local taxes: some Ohio cities or counties add their own local income tax on top of the state rate. This calculator estimates state-level tax only.
