PAYG Withholding Tax Tables 2026

This page explains which ATO PAYG withholding schedule applies for 2026-27, with sample rows from the weekly (NAT 1005), fortnightly (NAT 1006) and monthly (NAT 1007) tables showing tax withheld with and without the tax-free threshold. People land on it to look up how much tax an employer should withhold from a pay, and to understand how the fortnightly and monthly figures are derived from the weekly table, with updates effective 1 July 2026.

Australian employers, payroll and bookkeeping staff, and employees checking how much tax should be taken from their pay; intent is practical lookup of withholding amounts.

A mention would suit payroll or accounting software, bookkeeping and BAS services, or tax-agent and tax-return services aimed at Australian small businesses and employees. It would read most naturally near the sample tables or the links to full tables and the tax withheld calculator, where the reader is already working out pay and withholding; fit is narrower for unrelated consumer brands, and the page's low search clicks suggest modest traffic.
