About

UK Payroll Cost Calculator turns the 2026-27 GOV.UK employer rates into exact numbers a small business can plan with. employer_ni and employee_ni compute Class 1 National Insurance for a weekly, monthly or annual pay period and show every band, including the zero-rate reliefs for apprentices under 25 (category H) and employees under 21 (category M). employment_allowance_offset applies the GBP 10,500 Employment Allowance against a liability. nmw_check compares an hourly rate, or a salary and weekly hours, with the National Minimum or Living Wage for the worker's age and apprentice status on a given date. apprenticeship_levy applies the 0.5% rate and GBP 15,000 allowance to a pay bill. employer_cost_of_hire adds employer National Insurance and the minimum employer workplace-pension contribution to a salary. ni_thresholds_for_period and rates_reference return every figure with its source, tax year and how well it was verified. PAYE income tax, student loans and NIC categories beyond A, B, C, H, J and M are not modelled.
