About

The calculator estimates take-home pay from a gross income by applying: (1) income tax bands and (2) employee National Insurance (Class 1), based on the assumptions listed below.

• Standard PAYE employee (not self-employed / contractor / limited company).
• England & Wales income tax rates (Scotland differs).
• Employee National Insurance (Class 1).
• No pension contributions (including salary sacrifice).
• No student loan repayments.
• No taxable benefits, expenses, bonuses, or commissions.
• Figures are annualised to show an estimate (payroll rounding may differ).

If your situation includes any of the above (or uses a different tax code), your payslip may differ from the estimate.

The calculator is only as accurate as the thresholds and rates currently implemented. UK tax rules can change. If you spot an issue, please contact us using the details below.
