Pakistan income tax data
This page uses local tax-rate data configured for Pakistan Tax Year 2027. It supports salary and non-salary income estimates. Final tax filing may require official FBR review, withholding adjustments, credits, rebates, exemptions, minimum tax, or professional advice.
How is tax on income calculated in Pakistan?
Tax on income in Pakistan is calculated on annual taxable income using progressive slabs: income up to Rs. 600,000 is exempt, then rates rise from 1% to 35% for salary income and up to 45% for business and other non-salary income under the slabs used for FY 2026-27 (Tax Year 2027).
Taxable income is your total annual income minus eligible deductions, and the slab is always selected on that annual figure, not on monthly earnings. For a Rs. 100,000 monthly salary (Rs. 1,200,000 a year), the tax is Rs. 6,000 per year — about Rs. 500 per month. The calculator above applies the slab formula automatically, adds the high-income surcharge when the threshold is crossed, and shows monthly tax, surcharge, and net income.
Pakistan Income Tax Calculator for Salary, Business, and Non-Salary Income
In simple words
Enter your yearly income and pick your income type to see how much Pakistan income tax you may owe, including any surcharge.
The Income Tax Calculator Pakistan works out annual income tax. It covers salary, business, professional, and freelance income. You enter your yearly income and pick the income type. The tool shows estimated tax, surcharge, monthly tax, and net income.
Pakistan income tax works on annual taxable income. This means the slab is chosen from your total yearly income, not one month of earnings. Taxable income is your income after allowed deductions. The calculator adds your income sources and subtracts the deductions you enter.
The tool supports two income types. A salaried person earns employment income from an employer. A non-salaried person earns from business, profession, consulting, freelance work, or trade. Pakistan uses different slabs for each. Pick the correct type so the right slab is used.
A high-income surcharge is included. Surcharge is extra tax on top of the normal slab tax. If your taxable income crosses the threshold, the calculator adds the surcharge rate. The result card shows base tax and surcharge separately. This keeps the result clear.
Salaried users can use this tool for a yearly tax estimate. Enter annual salary and leave business income blank. The calculator then estimates annual salary tax. If you only want monthly salary tax, the Pakistan salary tax calculator is easier. It starts from your monthly salary.
For business owners, tax planning is part of financial planning. Knowing your estimated tax helps you set aside funds and price services correctly. A business owner who only watches gross revenue can easily overestimate profit. This calculator helps you think about taxable income after deductions.
Freelancers and online earners can use this tool for rough planning. Freelance tax can depend on your registration, export of services, and withholding tax. The calculator gives a starting estimate. It is useful before you talk to a tax adviser, because you already have a number.
The tool is easy to read. It does not show only one tax amount. It shows the applied slab, base tax, surcharge, total annual tax, monthly tax, and net income. The breakdown table explains each input and result. This helps you trust and understand the estimate.
Tax rules change through annual Finance Acts and FBR circulars. FBR is the Federal Board of Revenue, Pakistan's tax authority. Actual filing can involve credits, rebates, exemptions, and advance tax. Use this calculator for education and planning. Verify the final amount with official FBR material or a tax adviser.
Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate income tax in Pakistan?
To calculate income tax in Pakistan, add your annual taxable income, subtract eligible deductions, select the correct salary or non-salary slab, apply the slab formula, and add surcharge if applicable. This calculator does those steps automatically for estimation.
How is tax on income calculated in Pakistan?
Tax on income in Pakistan is calculated on annual taxable income using progressive slabs. Income up to Rs. 600,000 is exempt, then rates rise to 35% for salary income and up to 45% for business and other non-salary income under the slabs used for FY 2026-27 (Tax Year 2027). Taxable income is total annual income minus eligible deductions.
How much income tax do I pay on a 100,000 salary in Pakistan?
On a monthly salary of Rs. 100,000 (Rs. 1,200,000 a year), estimated income tax is Rs. 6,000 per year, or Rs. 500 per month. The annual income falls in the Rs. 600,001 to Rs. 1,200,000 band, taxed at 1% of the amount above Rs. 600,000 under the FBR salary slabs — a band unchanged for FY 2026-27.
Is income tax the same as salary tax in Pakistan?
No. Salary tax is income tax applied to salaried employees and deducted at source by the employer. Income tax is the broader tax covering salary, business, rental, capital gains, and other income. For a full comparison, read our salary tax vs income tax guide.
What is the minimum taxable income in Pakistan for 2026-27?
Rs. 600,000 per year, or Rs. 50,000 per month. The tax-free threshold stays at Rs. 600,000 for FY 2026-27 (Tax Year 2027), unchanged from Tax Year 2026, so annual income up to this limit pays zero income tax under both the salary and non-salary slabs.
What are the current income tax slabs used in Pakistan salary tax calculators?
Pakistan salary tax calculators use the official FBR salary slabs for FY 2026-27 (Tax Year 2027): 0% up to Rs. 600,000; 1% from Rs. 600,001 to Rs. 1,200,000; Rs. 6,000 + 11% from Rs. 1,200,001 to Rs. 2,200,000; Rs. 116,000 + 20% from Rs. 2,200,001 to Rs. 3,200,000; Rs. 316,000 + 25% from Rs. 3,200,001 to Rs. 4,100,000; Rs. 541,000 + 29% from Rs. 4,100,001 to Rs. 5,600,000; Rs. 976,000 + 32% from Rs. 5,600,001 to Rs. 7,000,000; and Rs. 1,424,000 + 35% above Rs. 7,000,000 — per the Finance Bill 2026, First Schedule. See our FBR tax slabs 2026-27 guide for the full breakdown.
What is the difference between gross salary and taxable income in a Pakistani tax calculator?
Gross salary is the full amount you earn before tax, bonus, or deductions. Taxable income is what remains after adding taxable bonuses and other income and subtracting eligible deductions — the figure the tax slabs are applied to. Calculators show both so you can see how your tax is derived.
Is salary income taxed differently from business income in Pakistan?
Yes. Salary income and non-salary or business income can use different tax slab structures. That is why this calculator includes an income type selector.
What income should I enter in this calculator?
Enter annual salary income, annual business or non-salary income, other taxable income, and optional annual deductions. The calculator uses the total taxable annual income for the estimate.
Does this calculator include Pakistan high-income surcharge?
Yes. If taxable annual income exceeds the configured surcharge threshold, the calculator adds the relevant surcharge estimate and shows it separately in the result.
Can freelancers use this Pakistan income tax calculator?
Freelancers can use it for a rough planning estimate by entering annual freelance income as business or non-salary income. Final tax treatment may depend on registration, documentation, export status, and applicable tax regime.
Is this calculator an official FBR calculator?
No. It is an independent calculator built for educational and planning purposes. For final filing, always verify your tax position with FBR or a qualified tax professional.
What is taxable annual income?
Taxable annual income is the income amount used to calculate tax after adding relevant income sources and subtracting deductions or adjustments included in the estimate.
What is monthly tax equivalent?
Monthly tax equivalent is the estimated total annual tax divided by twelve. It helps users understand the monthly impact of annual income tax.
Why is my final tax return different from this estimate?
A final tax return can include withholding tax, tax credits, rebates, exemptions, business expenses, minimum tax, final tax regime rules, and other adjustments not fully covered by a simple calculator.
Which calculator should I use for monthly salary tax?
Use the Pakistan salary tax calculator if you want to start from monthly salary and estimate monthly salary tax. Use this income tax calculator if you want broader annual income tax planning.
