Oregon's four-bracket ladder (4.75%–9.9%): what comes out of each 2026 check
Oregon taxes income on a graduated state schedule for 2026, applied after the state deduction for your filing status. This calculator applies that on top of federal withholding and Social Security / Medicare to estimate your Oregon take-home pay.
Oregon uses a graduated income tax with 4 brackets for 2026, with marginal rates ranging from 4.75% to a top rate of 9.9% (which applies to single-filer taxable income above $125,000). For 2026, Oregon's state standard deduction is $2,910 for single filers and $5,820 for married couples filing jointly. When working out its taxable income, Oregon also lets you subtract the federal income tax you owe, up to $8,750, a limit that steps down once income reaches $125,000 and is zero from $145,000. The figures here include it. As a worked example, a single filer earning $60,000 pays about $4,237 in Oregon income tax (roughly 7.1% of gross) before federal tax and FICA.
What this estimate doesn't include: Local income taxes are not included. Oregon localities (e.g. Portland Metro Supportive Housing Services tax and Multnomah County Preschool For All tax) levy SEPARATE local personal income taxes that are not modeled here. Oregon lets you subtract the federal income tax you owe from the income it taxes, up to $8,750 for 2026, and this estimate applies it. It uses the federal income tax this estimate works out from your pay, so other income or credits on your real return would change it. The limit steps down once federal adjusted gross income reaches $125,000 ($250,000 for married filing jointly and head of household) and is zero from $145,000 ($290,000). Married filing separately gets half the limit, which this estimate does not apply. Head of household uses Oregon's Chart J brackets (same as married filing jointly) but its own $4,650 standard deduction, per the DOR rate charts. Oregon's Statewide Transit Tax is now included. It is one-tenth of 1% of your wages, comes out of your pay, and has no wage cap, so on $75,000 it is $75 a year. Oregon's personal exemption credit ($260/exemption for 2026), Earned Income Credit, and other credits/subtractions are not modeled. City, county or school-district income taxes where they apply, court-ordered deductions, union dues, and anything else your specific employer withholds are not in this figure; your pay stub is the authority on those.
Estimates only, not tax advice. The section "What this estimate doesn't include" above lists what's left out; see also our terms and the corrections log.

Paid Leave Oregon and Oregon Statewide Transit Tax, paid by the employee: what else Oregon takes from your check
On a Oregon paycheck, these state programs are deducted in addition to income tax and Social Security / Medicare:
| Program | Employee rate (2026) | Wage base / cap |
|---|---|---|
| Paid Leave Oregon (PFML) — employee share | 0.6% (employees pay 60% of the 1.0% total contribution) | Wages up to $184,500 (2026 Social Security wage base) |
| Oregon Statewide Transit Tax, paid by the employee | 0.1% of wages ($1 per $1,000) | No wage cap; charged on wages after 401(k) and Section 125 money, withheld by the employer |
Included in your take-home: the OR Paid Leave, OR Transit Tax contributions are subtracted from the take-home estimate at the top of this page. These are withheld after tax and do not lower your taxable income.

Is overtime and tips tax-free in Oregon? Federally yes, and on the Oregon return too
Qualified overtime premium pay and tips are federally deductible for 2025–2028 (OBBBA caps & rules); FICA still applies.
Oregon state income tax: Oregon follows federal tax law as it changes, so the federal tips and overtime deductions also come off the income Oregon taxes. Oregon's 2026 tax law, SB 1507, does not add them back (it does add back the car loan interest deduction, from 2026). (source: olis.oregonlegislature.gov)
- Overtime: 2025 — deductible on your Oregon return too; 2026–2028 — deductible on your Oregon return too.
- Tips: 2025 — deductible on your Oregon return too; 2026–2028 — deductible on your Oregon return too.
Car loan interest: Oregon allows the federal car loan interest deduction on your 2025 Oregon return. From 2026 it does not: Oregon's 2026 tax law, SB 1507, adds the interest back, so it no longer lowers your Oregon tax. (source: Oregon SB 1507 (2026), sections 2 and 10)

Two Oregon payroll quirks worth knowing
- Oregon's top income tax rate is 9.9%, but most workers pay a lower share of their wages than that. Oregon lets you subtract part of your federal income tax, and it also gives a standard deduction and a personal exemption credit.
- Oregon's minimum wage uses three regional tiers and changes every July 1 (not January 1): $16.80 Portland Metro, $15.55 Standard, $14.55 Non-Urban as of July 1, 2026 — uncommon both in its mid-year timing and its geography-based rates.
