About this estimate

A useful estimate, not a tax assessment.

The calculator uses the 2026/27 individual tax brackets, applicable age rebates and the standard Medical Scheme Fees Tax Credit. It does not calculate PAYE withholding, UIF, Additional Medical Expenses Tax Credit, capital gains tax, lump-sum tax or the value of fringe benefits and deductions. The taxable income entered should already reflect relevant inclusions and allowable deductions.

This calculator is intended for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute a SARS assessment or accounting, tax, financial or other professional advice. Actual tax outcomes depend on individual circumstances and may differ from this estimate.
