UK Dividend Tax Guide 2025–2026
Current UK rates, allowance rules and band interaction
| Dividend Band | Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Dividend Allowance | 0% | First £500 is tax free but still uses up tax bands |
| Basic Rate | 8.75% | After allowance, while in basic band |
| Higher Rate | 33.75% | Applies once higher-rate band is reached |
| Additional Rate | 39.35% | For dividends above additional-rate threshold |
How this calculator applies allowances
Personal allowance is used against non-dividend income first, then any remaining amount is applied to dividends.
The dividend allowance is then applied as a 0% band to the next £500 of dividends.
