Frequently asked questions
Is this an official tax figure?
No. It is a careful estimate based on the published 2025/2026 rates and is not tax advice. For an official figure, check with the Inland Revenue Department or a qualified accountant.
What rates does it use?
The 2025/2026 rates effective 1 April 2025: a tax-free personal relief of LKR 1,800,000 a year (LKR 150,000 a month), then 6% on the first 1,000,000 of taxable income, 18%, 24%, 30% and 36% on the bands above, with the old 12% band removed.
Is my salary information uploaded?
No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser with nothing uploaded, so your salary stays private.
What is EPF and is it included?
EPF is the Employees' Provident Fund. The employee contributes 8% of earnings, which this tool deducts to show your take-home pay. The employer also contributes, but that is not deducted from your salary.
What does the foreign-currency option do?
Income from services paid in foreign currency is taxed at a maximum rate of 15%. Ticking the box caps the tax at that rate for an estimate; confirm eligibility with the IRD.
