What can you calculate here?
taxcalculators.uk provides free, browser-based UK estimates for annual salary take-home, weekly or monthly PAYE Income Tax, self-employed profit, employer cost, rental profit, bonus or overtime, director salary and dividends, standalone dividend tax, and VAT. Current tools support the 2026/27 tax year, with 2025/26 retained where a historical comparison is useful. Salary-related tools include England, Wales and Northern Ireland or Scottish earned-income bands where stated. Every calculator keeps the main result visible, explains the calculation scope, lists excluded cases and links to the official HMRC, GOV.UK or Scottish Government sources used for rates and thresholds. Inputs are processed in the browser and are not sent to analytics. Results are estimates rather than personalised tax advice, payroll software, a tax return or authority to declare a dividend. Use the matching calculator for one job, then verify material decisions against the linked official guidance or a suitably qualified professional.
