TaxFocal is a free tax calculator resource built for everyday people in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. We believe understanding your tax situation should not require a degree in accounting or an expensive consultation. Our tools translate complex government tax rules into clear, instant answers — in plain English.
Whether you are calculating your take-home pay in California, figuring out how much redundancy pay you are owed in the UK, planning your RRSP contributions in Canada, or working out your superannuation in Australia — TaxFocal gives you accurate, up-to-date numbers in seconds.
Financial clarity for everyone. We want anyone — regardless of their financial knowledge — to be able to understand their tax situation instantly, for free, without signing up or sharing personal information.
TaxFocal is maintained by the TaxFocal Team — a group of independent developers and researchers with a strong interest in personal finance and tax policy across the English-speaking world. We are not affiliated with any government body, tax software company, or financial institution. We have no financial incentive to steer you toward any particular tax filing service. Our only goal is to give you accurate, unbiased information.
Every tax rate, bracket, and threshold on TaxFocal is sourced directly from official government publications:
We update our rates immediately after each government's annual budget or tax announcement. For the US, this typically happens in November/December each year. For the UK, rates change in April. For Canada, November. For Australia, July.
Our calculators are reviewed annually by the TaxFocal Team to ensure continued accuracy. If you spot an error, please contact us and we will investigate and correct it within 48 hours.
TaxFocal provides estimates for educational and informational purposes only. We are not a tax filing service, we do not give personalised tax advice, and we are not a substitute for a qualified tax professional. Our calculations are as accurate as possible based on standard formulas, but your individual situation — deductions, credits, self-employment income, foreign income — may change what you actually owe. Always consult a qualified tax professional for advice specific to your situation.
We do not collect, store, or share the salary figures or personal information you enter into our calculators. All calculations happen in your browser. Nothing you type into TaxFocal is ever transmitted to our servers. See our full Privacy Policy for details on how we handle cookies and advertising data.
