Knowing what you'll pay isn't the same as knowing what you should pay.

This calculator tells you the tax on the salary and dividends you've already decided to take. It can't tell you whether that split is the right one. Pension timing, how the shareholding is structured, whether profit should be left in the company at all, and what the April 2026 dividend rise has done to the arithmetic — all of it changes the answer, and none of it shows up in a calculator. Watch the short video, then book a call. I'll take your real figures, run them properly, and tell you where the money is leaking. Fifteen minutes, no charge, no obligation.
