Indiana locals

Local Withholding County Income Tax

County local taxes are collected by the state and remitted with the Indiana state income tax. The tax identification number assigned to an employer for the state income tax will be the same number assigned for the county tax.  

Employers in the state of Indiana are required to withhold the Indiana County tax from any employees living within a county as of January 1. If an employee resides out of state, but works in an Indiana adopting county, the employer should withhold for the Indiana county the principal place of work or business.

If you have any questions regarding this process, please call the Department of Revenue at (317) 232-2240.
