    How we calculate your tax

    Personal Allowance

    Everyone gets £12,570 tax-free, but this tapers by £1 for every £2 earned above £100,000. If you earn £125,140 or more, your Personal Allowance is zero.

    Income Tax Bands

    Basic rate (20%) applies to the first £37,700 of taxable income. Higher rate (40%) applies up to £125,140. Additional rate (45%) applies above that. These are rest-of-UK rates for England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

    National Insurance

    Self-employed individuals pay Class 2 (flat rate) and Class 4 (percentage of profits above £12,570). PAYE employees have National Insurance deducted automatically by their employer.

    Savings and Dividends

    Savings have a Personal Savings Allowance (£1,000 for basic rate taxpayers, £500 for higher rate, £0 for additional rate). Dividends have a £500 allowance for 2024/25 onwards, taxed at 8.75%, 33.75% or 39.35% depending on your band.

    Student Loans

    Repayments are calculated based on your loan plan type and the relevant threshold. Plan 1, Plan 2, Plan 4 and Postgraduate loans each have different thresholds and repayment rates.
