How it's calculated

The result is resident income tax on the annualised amount you enter. Weekly pay is multiplied by 52, fortnightly by 26 and monthly by 12, then any other taxable income is added.

Each rate applies only to the dollars inside that band. The tax-free threshold means the first $18,200 is taxed at nil. These rates do not include the Medicare levy of 2%. The calculator also does not apply the low income tax offset or study-loan repayments.

From 1 July 2026 the $18,201 to $45,000 band is 15 cents per dollar, down from 16 cents in 2025-26. The other bands are unchanged. Choose 2025-26 in the calculator to use the earlier rates.

What is the tax-free threshold in Australia?

The first $18,200 of taxable income is tax-free for Australian residents. With the Low Income Tax Offset (LITO) factored in, you effectively pay no income tax until your income exceeds approximately $22,575 to $24,000 in 2025-26, depending on your individual circumstances.

Do I have to pay the Medicare Levy?

Most Australian residents pay the Medicare Levy at 2% of their taxable income. It funds Australia's public health system. Low-income earners may pay a reduced amount or nothing if their income is below the threshold (check the ATO's current figures, which are indexed annually). A Medicare Levy Surcharge of 1%–1.5% applies on top for higher earners without private hospital cover.
