Wszystko o Sole Trader Tax (Income Tax + NIC)
📋Prezentacja+
A self-employed sole trader pays income tax and National Insurance on trading profit (income minus allowable expenses) via Self Assessment. For 2025/26: income tax at 20/40/45% above the £12,570 personal allowance, Class 4 NIC at 6% between £12,570 and £50,270 then 2% above. Class 2 NIC is no longer compulsory above the Small Profits Threshold.
💡 Dobre praktyki
- Keep evidence of allowable expenses — they reduce both income tax and Class 4 NIC pound for pound.
- Payments on account mean your first Self Assessment bill can be 150% of the tax due — budget for it.
- Above ~£50,000 profit, incorporating and taking dividends may reduce total tax — compare with the IR35/limited-company route.
🔢 Konkretny przykład
£45,000 trading profit: £6,486 income tax + £1,946 Class 4 NIC (no Class 2 due) = £8,432, leaving £36,568 net — an 18.7% effective rate.
