Tax & Salary calculators

Work out the bill and the cash you keep — then open the tool that matches your country and tax year. Figures use the inputs you enter; they are not a local-tax or lender quote.

Start here, then explore the groups below.

Separate the tax you pay from the cash you keep

Tax tools answer a different question from a payslip: which band, which deduction, and what happens if income or contributions move. Treat the result as a planning estimate until you have checked the current official bands for your country and tax year.

  1. Confirm the tax year and residency rules the calculator is modelling.
  2. Change one input at a time — salary, pension or a taxable event — so you can see which lever moved the bill.
  3. Use the linked take-home or payroll tool when you need net pay rather than the tax line alone.

From band to take-home

This hub brings together the tax tools currently available for NZ visitors. Start with the calculator closest to your question, enter figures that reflect your own situation, and compare more than one scenario when the decision is important.

The tools show the maths implied by the inputs. They do not replace provider quotes, professional advice, or country-specific rules that are not shown in the calculator. Review the assumptions beside each result before using it to make a decision.
