How 香港薪俸稅及強積金計算機 2026/27 works

This calculator works out an employee's Hong Kong salaries tax and Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) contributions for the years of assessment 2026/27 and 2025/26, from the Inland Revenue Department's allowance and rate table and the MPFA's contribution rules.

Allowances. For 2026/27 the basic allowance is HK$145,000 and the married person's allowance HK$290,000 (2025/26: HK$132,000 and HK$264,000). Each child brings HK$140,000, and a child under two brings the same again. Dependent parents or grandparents aged 60 or more bring HK$55,000 each, those aged 55 to 59 HK$27,500, doubled when they live with you all year.

A worked example. On HK$40,000 a month, single, 2026/27: income HK$480,000, MPF HK$18,000, net income HK$462,000, net chargeable income HK$317,000 and tax HK$16,000 + 17% x HK$117,000 = HK$35,890, leaving HK$35,509.17 a month.

Frequently asked questions

How is salaries tax calculated in Hong Kong?

Income less deductions such as MPF gives net income. Less allowances, it gives net chargeable income, taxed at 2%, 6%, 10% and 14% on four HK$50,000 bands and 17% above. The tax charged is the lower of that and 15% of net income, the standard rate.

What is the basic allowance for 2026/27?

The basic allowance rises to HK$145,000 from 2026/27, up from HK$132,000. The married person's allowance becomes HK$290,000 and the child allowance HK$140,000 per child. The Legislative Council passed the change and it was gazetted on 22 May 2026, so the 2026/27 provisional tax already uses it.

When does the standard rate apply?

Only when 15% of net income, before allowances, is less than the progressive tax. For a single person in 2026/27 that happens at about HK$2,132,500 a year without deductions. Above HK$5,000,000 of net income, the standard rate is 16% on the excess, the two-tiered rate from 2024/25.

Is there a tax reduction for 2025/26?

Yes. The 2026-27 Budget waived 100% of salaries tax for 2025/26 up to HK$3,000 per person, gazetted on 22 May 2026. The Inland Revenue Department applies it in the final assessment automatically. No reduction has been announced for 2026/27, so the calculator takes none off.
