About this comparison

Figures use the 2025/26 tax year and the same logic as our UK Salary Calculator: the £12,570 personal allowance (tapered above £100,000), Income Tax at 20% / 40% / 45% and Class 1 National Insurance at 8% then 2%. The "net raise" is simply the take-home pay at £200,000 minus the take-home pay at £190,000. These are estimates for the 2025/26 tax year and are not personal tax advice.
