Ohio State Income Tax Guide (2026)
Ohio applies progressive income tax brackets from 0% to 3.99%, with the lowest bracket providing a full exemption on the first $26,050 of taxable income.
1. Ohio Progressive Tax Brackets
Ohio uses progressive tax brackets, meaning higher portions of your income are taxed at higher rates - up to a top marginal rate of 3.99%. You only pay the higher rate on the dollars that fall within each bracket, not on your entire salary.
| OH Taxable Income (Single) | Marginal Rate |
|---|---|
| $0 to $26,050 | 0% |
| $26,051 to $52,100 | 2.85% |
| $52,101 to $104,200 | 3.33% |
| $104,201 to $208,400 | 3.88% |
| $208,401 and over | 3.99% |
2. Deductions and Conformance
Ohio does not offer a standard deduction, so the rate applies from the first dollar of taxable income. Pre-tax 401(k) contributions, HSA contributions, and employer health premiums reduce your Ohio taxable income.
