Income tax in Oregon
Oregon taxes wage income on a progressive schedule — 4 brackets running from 4.75% to 9.9% for single filers. This calculator applies Oregon's real 2026 brackets, its standard deduction ($2,910 single / $5,820 married) and its personal exemption, so the state-tax line follows the actual schedule rather than a flat-rate guess.
Oregon income tax brackets for 2026
Single filers. Each rate applies only to the income falling inside that band — these are marginal rates, not a flat rate on the whole salary.
| Taxable income over | Rate |
|---|---|
| $0 | 4.75% |
| $4,550 | 6.75% |
| $11,400 | 8.75% |
| $125,000 | 9.9% |
State taxable income is your pay after Oregon's standard deduction and personal exemption of $2,910 for a single filer ($5,820 married filing jointly).
How Oregon compares
Oregon is among the heaviest state income tax burdens in the country: a single filer on $100,000 hands over $8,176 to the state, the 1st highest of the 51 jurisdictions covered here. The closest comparisons are Hawaii ($6,070), Maine ($5,654) and District of Columbia ($5,532). The 9.9% top rate is marginal — it only bites on the last slice of income.
Worked example: $100,000 in Oregon
Take a single filer on $100,000 in Oregon. After the $2,910 standard deduction and personal exemption, state taxable income is $97,090:
| Income band | Rate | Tax |
|---|---|---|
| $0 – $4,550 | 4.75% | $216 |
| $4,550 – $11,400 | 6.75% | $462 |
| $11,400 – $97,090 | 8.75% | $7,498 |
| Total state tax | — | $8,176 |
The effective rate works out to 8.2% of gross salary — far below the 9.9% top marginal rate, because only the last slice of income is taxed at that rate.

Why does my actual paycheck differ from this estimate?
Real paychecks reflect your W-4 withholding choices and pre-tax benefits. For Oregon, some cities and counties levy a local income tax on top of the state rate, which this calculator does not include — use the local tax field above. This calculator is a planning estimate, not a payroll prediction.
