📺 How Your Salary is Taxed in England (2024/25)
How Your Take-Home Pay is Calculated in England
Understanding how your take-home pay is calculated in England is essential for managing your finances, especially as tax codes, National Insurance, and pension deductions affect your net income. This calculator provides a detailed estimate of your pay after all major deductions based on the latest HMRC thresholds for the 2024/25 tax year.
Income Tax (PAYE)
Your gross salary is subject to income tax under the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) system. In England, income is taxed progressively across bands—basic rate (20%), higher rate (40%), and additional rate (45%). Most employees receive a personal allowance (typically £12,570) before income tax is applied. Your tax code determines whether you're entitled to this allowance or if adjustments apply (e.g. second job, company benefits).
National Insurance Contributions (NICs)
Employees also pay Class 1 National Insurance, which helps fund state pensions and the NHS. NICs are calculated on your earnings above the Primary Threshold and vary by income level. For example, in 2024/25, employees pay 8% on earnings between the threshold and the upper earnings limit.
Pension Contributions
If you're enrolled in a workplace pension scheme, a percentage of your gross pay is deducted before tax. This reduces your taxable income and boosts long-term retirement savings. Our calculator allows you to enter your pension rate to show its effect on your net salary.
Student Loan Repayments
If you have a student loan, repayments are calculated as a percentage of your earnings above a threshold. The repayment rate and threshold depend on your loan plan (Plan 1, Plan 2, Plan 4 for Scotland, or Postgraduate). These repayments are automatically deducted via PAYE.
Tax Codes
Your tax code (like 1257L or BR) tells HMRC how much personal allowance you’re entitled to. A correct code ensures you're taxed appropriately. If you have more than one job, or benefits like a company car, you may be on a different code, which affects your net pay.
Use this calculator to estimate your monthly, weekly, and annual take-home pay in England. Whether you're starting a job, reviewing a salary offer, or budgeting, it helps you understand exactly how much money you'll take home after taxes and deductions.
