Frequently Asked Questions
How much income tax will I pay on my salary in Pakistan?

What salary is tax-free in Pakistan?
Salary up to Rs 600,000 a year is tax-free under the Tax Year 2027 FBR card. Above that, tax starts at 1% and rises through the published slabs. Even below the threshold, many people file a return anyway to stay on the Active Taxpayers List, which keeps withholding tax lower on bank transactions and property.
Does this include the 9% surcharge?
There is no surcharge to include. The 9% surcharge on salaried income was abolished by the Finance Act 2026, so Tax Year 2027 has no surcharge. The calculator follows the current FBR card exactly.
Which tax year does this calculator use?
Tax Year 2027, using the FBR salary tax card from the Finance Act 2026. The rates on this page were verified on 1 November 2026. Tax Year 2027 covers income earned from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027.
Can I enter my salary monthly or yearly?
Either. Use the Monthly or Annual switch above the salary box — the amount converts for you, so Rs 147,500 a month and Rs 1,770,000 a year give the same result.
Is my salary data sent anywhere?
No. The whole calculation runs in your browser. Nothing you enter leaves your device, and there is no account or signup.
