Inputs

Estimate dividend tax based on dividend income and other taxable income. This is a simplified estimate and does not model savings income, tax reducers, or all dividend edge cases.

Last updated: 2025-04-06

Enter total dividends received in the period before tax.

Dividend income is required.

Optional. For example salary, pension income, or self-employed profit (before personal allowance).

How we calculated this

We estimate personal allowance based on total income (dividends + other income), apply it to other income first, then dividends, then apply the dividend allowance.

Dividend tax bands are applied using UK thresholds and dividend rates. Scottish income tax rates do not apply to dividends.

Notes

This tool provides an estimate. Dividend tax depends on your wider income and allowances. This simplified model does not include savings income, tax reducers, or all edge cases.

Dividend tax uses UK-wide dividend rates and thresholds. Scottish income tax bands apply to non-savings income, but not to dividends.
