Texas Income Tax Calculator
Estimate how much income tax you'll pay in Texas. Because Texas has no state income tax, your total tax bill is federal income tax plus FICA only — see the full breakdown below.
Estimate only. Based on 2024 federal brackets, FICA and an approximate average state rate. Your exact tax depends on deductions, credits and local taxes.
Texas state income tax
Texas has no state income tax, so the only income taxes on your wages are federal income tax and FICA (Social Security and Medicare). That makes Texas one of the most tax-friendly states for earned income.
Local taxes & other deductions
Texas also has no local income tax. Note that it funds public services largely through sales tax and property tax, which are not reflected in this paycheck-based estimate.
Effective vs. marginal tax rate
Your marginal rate is the tax on your next dollar of income — the top federal bracket you reach. Your effective rate is your total tax divided by your income, which is always lower because the first brackets are taxed at lower rates. The calculator above shows both.
