Why are three so many changes to the Newark Withholding requirements?
In December 2014, the Ohio Legislature passed a new State law that made sweeping changes 
to municipal tax collections for the entire State.  All municipalities are required to implement the 
State law with the tax year beginning January 1, 2016.

What is the tax rate for Newark?
The Newark City tax rate is 1.75% (0.175) of gross qualifying wages earned in Newark and/or

city, you may elect to withhold and remit their Newark tax at 1.75%.

What if my employees pay tax to another city?
If your employees are Newark residents and pay tax to another city,  the Newark resident is
