UK Take Home Pay Explained
Your take-home pay is what you actually receive after HMRC deducts income tax and National Insurance from your gross salary. For the 2025/26 tax year, the personal allowance is £12,570 (the amount you can earn tax-free), basic rate is 20% on income between £12,571 and £50,270, higher rate is 40% between £50,271 and £125,140, and additional rate is 45% above £125,140.
National Insurance contributions are charged at 8% on earnings between £12,570 and £50,270, and 2% on earnings above that. If your salary exceeds £100,000, your personal allowance is reduced by £1 for every £2 over £100,000 — creating an effective 60% marginal tax rate in the £100,000 to £125,140 bracket.
