Tax on Bonus UK (2026/27): Per-Amount Worked Examples

Per-amount worked tax calculations for the most common UK bonus sizes in 2026/27. Each page shows how the bonus is taxed across 4 different base-salary stack levels: basic-rate (£30k base), just-under-higher (£50k base), higher-rate (£75k base), and £100k PA-taper zone (£110k base). The bonus stacks on top of your existing salary at the marginal rate - there is no special "bonus tax rate" in the UK.
