Montana uses a simplified two-bracket income tax topping out at 5.65%. This Montana paycheck calculator combines federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and Montana state income tax to show your real 2026 take-home pay per paycheck.

How Montana state income tax works

Montana applies 4.7% on the first $47,500 of taxable income for single filers ($95,000 joint) and 5.65% on income above that threshold. The state recently consolidated its older multi-bracket system into this two-bracket structure.

Montana's standard deduction matches the federal amount of $16,100 single / $32,200 joint, which the calculator subtracts from your wage base before applying brackets. Montana has no general sales tax, which is unusual among states with an income tax.
