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. As a worked example, a single filer earning $60,000 pays about $4,676 in Oregon income tax (roughly 7.8% 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 allows a subtraction for federal income tax paid (up to $8,750 for 2026, phased out at higher incomes). This subtraction is NOT modeled, so estimates for filers who claim it will run HIGHER than the actual Oregon tax. 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.

Two Oregon payroll quirks worth knowing
- Oregon has no sales tax at all (one of only five such states), but funds services with a high top income tax rate of 9.9% — so a Portland-area paycheck can carry state income tax plus two stacked local income taxes (Metro SHS 1% and Multnomah County PFA up to 3%) above the income thresholds.
- 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.
