Taxes Included in This Australian Salary Calculator


  • Income Tax: Australia uses a progressive income tax system, meaning higher income is taxed at higher marginal rates. Resident tax rates are spread across five brackets, from 0% on income up to $18,200 to 45% on income above $190,000. Our calculator assumes you are an Australian tax resident and applies the resident tax scale.
  • Medicare Levy: A 2% levy is usually added to taxable income to help fund Medicare, Australia's public health system. The levy is calculated separately from income tax, although reductions and exemptions may apply for lower-income earners and certain personal circumstances.
  • Income Tax Offsets: Tax offsets reduce the final amount of tax payable after income tax has been calculated. Our tax calculator includes the low income tax offset (LITO), where applicable. LITO is worth up to $700 and gradually reduces once taxable income exceeds $37,500, reaching $0 at $66,667.
  • Instant Tax Deduction: From the 2026–27 tax year, eligible Australian tax residents who earn income from work can claim a standard deduction of up to $1,000 for work-related expenses. This simplifies record-keeping for smaller claims, while workers with more than $1,000 in work-related expenses can still claim their actual deductions.
  • Division 293 Tax: High-income earners may pay an additional 15% tax on concessional super contributions when their income and relevant super contributions exceed $250,000. This reduces the tax advantage of super contributions for higher earners.
