Taxes

City of Powell Income Tax:

A three-quarter percent (.75%) municipal income tax is imposed on anyone who earns income in the City of Powell, and on Powell residents who earn income elsewhere but are not taxed at a local level, wherever the income is earned. A credit of one-quarter percent (.25%) is available for income earned elsewhere that has been taxed locally, for a net tax due to Powell of one-half percent (.50%).

Note: Not all Powell, Ohio addresses are within the City of Powell. To confirm residency, please call the City offices at 614.885.5380, ext. 0, or click on this link: “Am I a City Resident?”    

Estimated quarterly payments are required for individuals who have not had Powell taxes withheld from their income. To avoid possible penalties, these payments must begin within four-and-a-half months of becoming a resident of Powell.

The City of Powell income tax is collected by the Regional Income Tax Agency (R.I.T.A.). Tax information and forms are available at www.RITAOhio.com or by calling the local Columbus area branch of R.I.T.A. at 614.538.0512.
