How this is worked out

Income tax is worked out on the bands for the region you choose, with the personal allowance reduced by £1 for every £2 of income above £100,000. Employee National Insurance is added, and both are deducted from your gross salary.

Worked example

  • Gross salary £35,000
  • England, Wales or Northern Ireland

tax (35,000 − 12,570) × 20% = £4,486.00, National Insurance £1,794.40

£28,719.60 a year, about £2,393.30 a month

Assumptions and limits

  • Income tax follows the region selected. Scotland uses its own bands, while National Insurance is the same across the UK.
  • Pension contributions, student loan repayments, salary sacrifice and taxable benefits are not included.
  • A whole tax year on a standard tax code. Mid-year changes and emergency codes will differ.
