Pakistan salary tax, explained

Every year, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) sets fresh income tax slabs for salaried individuals through the federal budget. This calculator uses the rates confirmed in the Finance Act 2026, effective from 1 July 2026 (Tax Year 2027) — including the newly widened bracket for the top 35% rate and the removal of the 9% high-income surcharge for salaried taxpayers.

How the calculator works

  1. Choose Monthly or Yearly — enter your salary either way and the other figures update automatically.
  2. Enter your gross salary — basic pay plus taxable allowances and bonuses, before any tax is deducted.
  3. Read your results — monthly and yearly tax, take-home pay, effective tax rate, and exactly which bracket your income sits in.

The calculator assumes your salary income is your dominant source of taxable income (more than 75% of the total), which is what puts you under the salaried slab table rather than the steeper non-salaried one.

FY 2026-27 tax slabs for salaried individuals

Pakistan uses a progressive system — each rate only applies to the slice of income that falls inside that bracket, not your whole salary. The first PKR 600,000 of annual income is completely tax-free.

How the formula works

Tax = Fixed amount (from the bracket) + Rate × (Taxable salary − Bracket threshold)

For example, an annual salary of PKR 2,000,000 falls in the PKR 1,200,001–2,200,000 bracket: PKR 6,000 + 11% × (2,000,000 − 1,200,000) = PKR 94,000 per year, or about PKR 7,833 per month.

Frequently asked questions

PKR 600,000 per year (PKR 50,000 per month). Salaried individuals earning at or below this amount owe no income tax for Tax Year 2027.
Yes. The 9% surcharge that used to apply to salaried individuals earning above PKR 10 million a year has been fully abolished starting Tax Year 2027. It still applies to non-salaried, business-income filers.
No. Only the portion of your income that falls inside a given bracket is taxed at that bracket's rate — this is the most common misunderstanding about the slab system. Everything below that slice is still taxed at the lower rates.
Yes. Tax withheld by your employer covers your monthly liability, but salaried individuals above the taxable threshold still need to file an annual income tax return with FBR through the IRIS portal.
Only if salary makes up more than 75% of their total taxable income. Otherwise, freelancers and business owners generally fall under the standard (non-salaried) slab table, which carries different, typically higher, rates.
No — these are federal rates and apply uniformly across all provinces and cities. The only location-based variation is Provincial Professional Tax, a separate, generally small amount collected by provincial authorities.
