How United Kingdom income tax works
Progressive tax applies to income after the supported deductions and personal allowance. Each band taxes only the portion inside it. These bands use the taxable income base; the initial table is for England.
Personal Allowance: GBP 12570. It reduces by 50% of adjusted income above GBP 100000. The result includes the actual allowed amount and the marginal effect of tapering.
| Taxable annual income | Rate |
|---|---|
| GBP 0 - 37,700 | 20% |
| GBP 37,700 - 125,140 | 40% |
| GBP 125,140 - and above | 45% |
Supported tax residences: England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland. The calculator applies the selected residence’s income-tax bands.
Calculation assumptions

- Standard Personal Allowance only; the selected home nation determines non-savings income-tax rates.
- Any pension entered is a gross employee contribution under a net pay arrangement, not salary sacrifice or relief at source.
- Pension contributions must fit your confirmed available annual allowance including employer contributions; no previous flexible pension access, carry-forward or annual allowance charge is assumed.
- No child benefit, marriage transfer, other income, benefits in kind or nonstandard tax codes.
