Indiana levies a flat state income tax of 3%. Unlike a progressive system, the same rate applies to all of your taxable income rather than rising as you earn more.
Indiana does not offer a separate state standard deduction in this model, so the flat rate applies to taxable income from the first dollar.
On top of this 3% state tax, every Indiana paycheck also has federal income tax and FICA (6.2% Social Security plus 1.45% Medicare) withheld.
What changes an Indiana paycheck?
The Indiana Department of Revenue sets the 2026 state adjusted gross income tax rate at 2.95%. There is no standard deduction; instead each personal exemption removes $1,000 from income, so this estimate deducts $1,000 for a single filer and head of household and $2,000 for married filing jointly.
All 92 Indiana counties levy a county income tax in 2026, and Departmental Notice #1 lists the rate for each. Rates run from 0.5% in Porter County to 3.0% in Randolph County; Marion County is 2.02% and St. Joseph County is 1.75%. Pick your county in the calculator; the examples on this page use Marion County.
County tax is set by where you live on January 1 of the tax year, or by your principal workplace county if you live out of state on that date. This estimate models the resident case only. Extra exemptions for dependents ($1,500 each), adopted children ($3,000) and age 65 or older or blindness are not modeled, and rates could change if the department issues a revised notice during the year.
