How Oregon taxes your paycheck
Oregon uses a graduated income tax with 4 brackets, from 4.75% on the first slice of taxable income to 9.9% on income over $125,000 for single filers. Each rate applies only to the income inside its bracket, so moving into a higher bracket never lowers your take-home pay. Before the rates apply, Oregon allows a standard deduction of $2,910 for single filers and $5,820 for married couples filing jointly. A personal credit of $256 for single filers and $512 for married couples filing jointly is then subtracted from the tax itself.
On a $75,000 salary, a single filer owes about $5,733 in Oregon income tax for 2026, an effective state rate of 7.64%.
Oregon lets filers subtract federal income tax paid, up to $8,250, which this simplified estimate does not apply, so it overstates Oregon tax.
| Rate | Single: taxable income | Married filing jointly: taxable income |
|---|---|---|
| 4.75% | $0 | $0 |
| 6.75% | over $4,550 | over $9,100 |
| 8.75% | over $11,400 | over $22,800 |
| 9.9% | over $125,000 | over $250,000 |

What this estimate leaves out
Oregon also allows county or city income taxes. Where they apply, they average about 0.18% of adjusted gross income (Tax Foundation, 2023 data), so check your local rate and add it to this estimate. State disability insurance and paid family-leave contributions and local income taxes are not included, and the federal figures assume the standard deduction with no credits such as the Child Tax Credit. Head-of-household and married-filing-separately returns use the state's single schedule, which a few states set separately.
