Disclaimer

General information only

The calculators and guides on this site are general information. They do not take your personal circumstances into account and they do not recommend any financial product. Results are estimates. Your payslip, your assessment from the IRD and the figures your employer, the MPFA or the IRD give you take priority.

What the calculators leave out

• Bonuses, pay that varies from month to month, and employees paid weekly or daily.
• Deductions other than the employee MPF, and allowances other than the basic, married person's and child allowances.
• Joint assessment, provisional tax and its instalments, holdover applications, and any salaries tax reduction.
• Income from work done outside Hong Kong.

Accuracy and changes

Rates are taken from official pages and are dated on the Sources and rates page. The IRD rate table read is headed 2025/26 and is used for 2026/27 because the IRD 2026/27 example uses the same bands. Laws and rates change, and there can be a delay before the site reflects a change. Rates as at 2 November 2026.

Limit of responsibility

To the extent the law allows, the operator is not liable for loss that results from using the site. Nothing here limits any right you have that cannot be excluded by law.

Where to check

For a figure that matters, check with the IRD (ird.gov.hk), the MPFA (mpfa.org.hk), your employer's payroll team, or a qualified professional.
