Calculate your Ontario provincial income tax with this free online calculator. This tool provides an estimate based on 2024 tax brackets and common deductions. For exact figures, consult the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) or a tax professional.
How the Ontario Income Tax Calculator Works
The Ontario income tax calculator estimates your provincial tax liability using the following steps:
- Calculate your taxable income by subtracting deductions from your gross income
- Apply Ontario's progressive tax rates to the taxable income
- Calculate federal income tax (if applicable)
- Sum provincial and federal taxes to get total income tax
The calculator uses Ontario's 2024 tax rates and assumes standard deductions unless you specify otherwise. It does not account for all possible tax credits, deductions, or exemptions.
For more precise calculations, you should consult the Canada Revenue Agency or a certified tax professional.

Worked Example
Let's calculate the income tax for a single Ontario resident with $80,000 gross income and no additional deductions:
- Taxable income = $80,000 - $13,307 (basic personal amount) = $66,693
- First $49,020 taxed at 5.05% = $2,456.09
- Next $17,673 taxed at 9.15% = $1,608.99
- Total Ontario tax = $2,456.09 + $1,608.99 = $4,065.08
- Federal tax (assuming 20.5% federal rate) = $66,693 × 20.5% = $13,672.75
- Total income tax = $4,065.08 + $13,672.75 = $17,737.83
This example shows approximately $17,738 in total income tax for this scenario.
