Tax on dividends in higher rates is 32.5% - less the 10% tax credit = 22.5% of the gross. This equates to 25% of the net.Originally posted by Platypus View PostIIRC it's 32.5%
Due to a weird interaction between the 40% tax band and the 10% tax credit on dividends
The additional rate (over £150k) is now 42.5% of the gross.

Try our dividend tax calculator. We made the higher rate band changed to it a while ago and it *should* be working correctly.

It gets complicated...Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostWhat is it if you go over 150K?
However, there's a very slim chance of me hitting that this year - expecting to get canned in August, if not before and in a good year I'm well below.

X = Amount Earned
Y = Rate of Tax
Z = Declared Percentage
I recommend you set z = 0
So therefore
tax = x*y*z

Dividends above higher rate of tax threshold.
I need a rough guide as to how much tax I'm going to pay next year.
Tax due = (Dividends taken above higher rate tax threshold) * X
What is X? 0.25, 0.3?
