How this paycheck calculator works
Enter your gross pay (or hourly rate), pay frequency, and region. We annualize earnings, apply that country’s tax model, then show net pay and a breakdown you can copy.
United States & Canada
US uses 2026 federal brackets, FICA, and state models — default pay frequency is biweekly (26/year), which is not the same as semi-monthly (24/year). Canada uses federal + provincial estimates with CPP/EI (Quebec approximated).
United Kingdom
UK estimates use PAYE income tax (including Scottish bands where selected) and employee Class 1 National Insurance for tax year 2025/26. Most salaried roles default to monthly pay.
Australia
Australia uses resident PAYG brackets and the Medicare levy for FY 2025–26. Optional HELP / HECS repayments and salary sacrifice to super can be toggled. Income tax is federal — states do not add wage tax in this model.
Pakistan & India
Pakistan uses FBR salaried slabs for FY 2025-26. India supports New or Old Tax Regime for FY 2025-26 with simplified EPF and professional tax.
