Idaho Paycheck Calculator (2026)

Last reviewed: April 20, 2026

Idaho applies a flat 5.695% state income tax to wage income, the result of a transition from a progressive bracket structure completed in 2023. The single-rate structure replaced a tiered schedule that had topped out higher and applied at multiple income levels. Idaho has no State Disability Insurance program funded by employee payroll, and no Idaho city levies a separate local income tax on wages. The state funds operations through sales tax and property tax in addition to state income tax. For a typical Idaho wage earner, the visible state and local income tax line on a pay stub is the 5.695% flat rate. This calculator estimates 2026 Idaho take-home pay after federal tax, FICA, and the state flat rate, with support for pre-tax 401(k) and HSA contributions.

Idaho paycheck FAQ

When did Idaho switch to a flat rate?
Idaho completed the transition to a single-rate structure in 2023, consolidating its previous progressive schedule into one rate. The flat rate has been refined slightly in subsequent years.
How does Idaho compare to neighboring Washington and Oregon?
Washington does not tax wages, so the take-home gap at the WA/ID border is significant. Oregon runs a progressive schedule topping at 9.9%, materially higher than Idaho's flat 5.695%. Idaho sits in the middle of its regional neighbors on paycheck income tax.
Does Idaho have State Disability Insurance?
No. Idaho does not run a State Disability Insurance program funded by employee payroll. Workers who want short-term disability coverage typically obtain it through their employer or a private policy.
Do any Idaho cities tax wages?
No. Idaho cities and counties do not impose a local income tax or payroll tax on employee wages.
