Vermont uses a four-bracket progressive income tax with a top rate of 8.75%. This Vermont paycheck calculator combines federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and Vermont state income tax to show your real 2026 take-home pay.

How Vermont state income tax works

Vermont's brackets for single filers are 3.35% up to $49,400, 6.6% to $119,700, 7.6% to $249,700, and 8.75% above $249,700. Married filing jointly uses higher thresholds at each step. Most middle-income workers pay between 6.6% and 7.6% on their top dollars.

Vermont offers a state standard deduction of $12,950 single / $25,900 joint, which the calculator subtracts from your wage base before applying brackets. Vermont's progressivity means lower earners pay much less than the headline 8.75% top rate suggests.
