Important scope notes
20
• PAYE resident rates use the revised bands effective 1 July 2026. Non-resident PAYE uses the current URA schedule.
21
• NSSF is selectable because standard, special non-resident and exempt/out-of-scope situations differ.
22
• LST is calculated from the standard employee annual bands and, by default, spread equally across July–October.
23
• This is a statutory payroll estimator, not a replacement for professional advice or an employer’s payroll/URA/NSSF filing system.
