Oregon Paycheck Calculator 2026

Federal withholding follows the IRS Publication 15-T percentage method — the one payroll systems use. Everything is computed in your browser; nothing you type is sent anywhere.
Works offline — your inputs never leave this device. How that works
Oregon's two distinctive terms are now applied: the federal-withholding subtraction (capped at $8,750) and the $263-per-allowance credit against tax. These replace an approximation that ran substantially high. The federal subtraction uses this calculator's own federal figure. Annualized estimate; Oregon's formula governs. Local taxes (Portland-area employees may also have local personal income taxes withheld: the Metro Supportive Housing Services tax and the Multnomah County Preschool for All tax, both administered by the City of Portland Revenue Division and both applying only above high income thresholds. Neither is computed here.) are not included.

What is the Oregon income tax rate for 2026?
Oregon uses graduated income-tax brackets, applied here to annualized wages after the state's standard deduction and exemptions. The figure was transcribed from Oregon Department of Revenue — 150-206-436 (Rev. 12-31-25), Oregon Withholding Tax Formulas, effective January 1, 2026 and verified on 2026-07-31.

Two reasons. Pre-tax items — retirement contributions, health premiums, HSA deductions — reduce taxable pay and are not modelled here. And this uses an annualized approximation of the state's schedule rather than the exact withholding tables your employer's payroll system uses, which is disclosed on every result.
Are local taxes included in the Oregon estimate?
No. Portland-area employees may also have local personal income taxes withheld: the Metro Supportive Housing Services tax and the Multnomah County Preschool for All tax, both administered by the City of Portland Revenue Division and both applying only above high income thresholds.
