Our Mission
Tax Handbook exists to make UK tax rules understandable. We publish plain-English calculators and guides for the most common tax questions: take-home pay, dividend tax, pension relief, capital gains, and inheritance tax.
Every calculator uses rates and thresholds cited from HMRC. Every guide links directly to the official source. No jargon, no upsells, no paid placements.
Editorial Disclosure
Content on Tax Handbook is AI-researched and human-reviewed. We use language models to draft articles and build calculators, then verify every rate, threshold, and rule against HMRC sources before publishing.
We do not accept paid placements, sponsored content, or affiliate fees. If we ever add revenue streams (display ads, for example), we will disclose them clearly.
Sources Policy
We cite only primary sources:
- HMRC (gov.uk) for tax rates, thresholds, allowances, and rules
- GOV.UK for student loan thresholds, pension regulations, and other government policy
- Companies House where relevant for company tax topics
We do not cite third-party blogs, aggregators, or commercial sites. If a claim cannot be verified from an official source, we do not publish it.
Not Financial Advice
Tax Handbook provides guidance only. Our calculators and articles are educational tools, not personalised financial advice. Always verify your specific situation with HMRC or consult a qualified accountant before making financial decisions.
