Ohio uses a simplified two-bracket income tax with a top state rate of just 2.75%. This Ohio paycheck calculator combines federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and Ohio state income tax to show your real 2026 take-home pay per paycheck.

How Ohio state income tax works

Ohio exempts the first $26,050 of taxable income for both single and joint filers and applies a flat 2.75% rate to all income above that threshold. The state consolidated its older multi-bracket system into this near-flat structure, making Ohio one of the lower-tax states for income.

Ohio offers a state personal exemption (treated here as a deduction) of $2,400 single / $4,800 joint, which the calculator subtracts from your wage base before applying brackets. Many Ohio municipalities also impose a local income tax of roughly 1% to 3% that is not included in this state estimate.
