Income Tax
Indiana levies a flat income tax of 2.95% on taxable income for 2026, down from 3.05% in 2025 as the state continues a legislated phase-down. Indiana allows no standard deduction; instead it grants a personal exemption of $1,000 per filer and $2,000 for joint filers, plus additional exemptions for dependents. Every Indiana county also levies its own local income tax on top of the state rate, so the combined rate an Indiana resident actually pays depends on the county of residence as of January 1.
