Frequently Asked Questions

What tax profiles are available?

Pre-configured profiles include US Federal (2026 brackets), UK (2026 rates), South Korea, Japan, and a simple flat rate option. You can also create custom tax brackets for any country or scenario.

What is the effective vs marginal tax rate?

The effective tax rate is the average rate paid on total income (total tax / gross income). The marginal rate is the rate applied to the last dollar earned — your highest tax bracket. The effective rate is always lower than the marginal rate in progressive systems.

Does it include state/provincial taxes?

The calculator focuses on federal/national income tax. State, provincial, or local taxes vary widely and are not included. You can approximate them by adding a custom deduction with the appropriate percentage.

Are the tax brackets up to date?

Tax brackets are configured based on 2026 published rates. Tax laws change annually — always verify with your local tax authority for official filing purposes. This tool is for estimation only.

Is this financial advice?

No. This calculator provides estimates for informational purposes only. It is not tax advice. Consult a qualified tax professional for your specific situation.
