Paycheck Calculator FAQ

Does Montana have a sales tax to go with its income tax?

No. Montana is one of only five states with no general sales tax, so the income tax and property taxes do the work. That is worth factoring into a comparison: a 5.9% top rate looks heavier than a neighbour's on paper, but nothing is added at the register on tools, materials or everyday spending.

What is the Montana state income tax rate?

Montana's two brackets are 4.7% and 5.9%, replacing a seven-bracket schedule in 2024, and a 2025 law steps the top rate down further from 2026. Montana levies no general sales tax.

Do any Montana cities charge a local income tax?

None. No Montana city or county taxes wages, and the state has no general sales tax either.

How much of my salary do I keep in Montana?

Typically 71% to 80% of gross between $40,000 and $120,000 for a single filer taking the standard federal deduction, before voluntary deductions. A $65,000 salary nets about $50,300 after Montana state tax. Enter your exact salary, filing status and deductions in the calculator for a precise breakdown.

Montana Take-Home

Take-home pay in Montana: what makes it different

Montana paychecks lose federal income tax, Social Security (6.2%), Medicare (1.45%) and Montana state income tax. Montana simplified to two income-tax brackets in 2024, 4.7% and 5.9%, and 2025 legislation trims the top rate in steps from 2026. Montana has no general sales tax, so income and property taxes carry the state, and no municipality taxes wages. A single filer earning $65,000 takes home about $50,300 a year (~77%), roughly $3,835 of which goes to the state. Enter any gross salary for the exact breakdown. (This page's table applies the 5.9% effective rate carried in the site's state-tax dataset.)

How does Montana take-home compare to nearby states?

Montana's 5.9% top bracket is heavier than Idaho's flat rate and North Dakota's 2.5%, and far heavier than Wyoming's zero, which is the sharpest contrast on any of its borders. The absence of a general sales tax narrows the real gap, and the short building season, which concentrates earnings into overtime-heavy summer months, tends to matter more to annual take-home than the rate does.

What deductions come out of a Montana paycheck?

Federal income tax, Social Security (6.2% to $176,100), Medicare (1.45%, plus 0.9% over $200,000), Montana state income tax, and any voluntary pre-tax items you elect: 401(k), health premiums, HSA or FSA contributions and union dues.

How does Montana gross pay compare with the national median?

Montana trade wages run about 8% below the national BLS OEWS median, a 0.92Γ— wage index. In-migration has driven a decade-long residential and commercial boom in Bozeman, Kalispell and the Flathead valley, while Billings supplies the state's heavy industrial work through refinery turnarounds and the eastern energy corridor. Take-home is the product of both sides, gross scale and the tax schedule, so compare a Montana offer against another state using the salary calculator for gross and this page for net.
