Oregon Paycheck Calculator
↻ Updated 2026 tax yearSee your real take-home pay in Oregon for 2026 — after federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare (FICA) and Oregon state income tax.
How Oregon taxes your paycheck
Oregon taxes wages on a graduated schedule that starts at 4.75% and climbs to 9.9% — one of the higher top rates in the country — after a comparatively small standard deduction of $2,910. The calculator above applies this single-filer schedule to estimate your Oregon withholding.
The tiny standard deduction and high starting rate mean Oregon takes a meaningful share of income even at modest salaries, though the 9.9% top rate only reaches upper-income dollars, keeping most workers' effective rate below the ceiling.
Portland-area local taxes
If you work in the Portland metro area, additional local taxes can apply to higher incomes — the Metro Supportive Housing Services tax and Multnomah County's Preschool for All tax. The calculator above models state income tax only, not these local taxes, so Portland-area high earners may owe a bit more than shown.
No general sales tax
Oregon is one of the few states with no general state sales tax, which is part of why its income tax rates run high — the state leans on income rather than consumption for revenue.
