How Indiana paycheck tax works
Indiana has a flat state income tax rate of 2.95% for 2026. Withholding subtracts per-exemption amounts ($1,000 personal, $1,500 per dependent) rather than a standard deduction, then applies 2.95% to the state portion. Every Indiana county levies its own separate income tax on top of the state rate.
Local tax can apply on top of the state's share. Every Indiana county levies its own income tax at rates set per county; that county tax is withheld separately and is on top of the 2.95% state rate.
The calculator annualizes your pay and applies Indiana's 2026 flat-rate withholding on top of federal income tax and FICA. Treat the result as a close estimate; your employer may withhold from per-period tables that differ slightly. Local city, county, or school-district taxes aren't included in this figure.
