Frequently asked questions
Which countries do your calculators cover?
We cover Ireland (Income Tax, USC, PRSI, 2026 Budget rates) and the United Kingdom (Income Tax, National Insurance, 2026/27 HMRC rates for England, Wales, and Northern Ireland). Scottish Income Tax rates differ and are not currently modelled.
Are these calculators free?
Yes, all calculators are completely free with no sign-up required.
How accurate are the results?
All calculators use the official published rates for their respective tax years. Standard calculators assume PAYE employment with default allowances and credits only. The Ireland Contract Rate Calculator also handles pension contributions, marital status, and three contractor structures. None of the calculators account for BIK, share options, or individual tax arrangements. For precise tax advice, consult a qualified tax professional.
What is the difference between gross and net pay?
Gross pay is your salary or contract revenue before any deductions. Net pay (take-home pay) is what lands in your bank account after Income Tax, social insurance contributions, and other statutory deductions are removed.
