Understanding Director Taxation
Salary
Your director's salary is subject to Income Tax and National Insurance. Many directors take a salary up to the NI threshold (£12,570) to maximize efficiency.
Dividends
Dividends are taxed differently and have no NI. You get a £500 tax-free allowance, then pay 8.75%, 33.75%, or 39.35% depending on your tax band.
Savings
Interest from savings is taxed based on your overall income. You may have a Personal Savings Allowance of up to £1,000.
