New tax tables (Tables B to D) for use from the start of the 2008/09 tax year have been published and are available in the usual two formats, the manual method and the calculator method.

The Starting Rate of tax no longer applies for PAYE purposes from 6 April 2008 and this change has prompted some rearrangement of the guidance provided in the Tables. However, the 2007/08 higher rate tax threshold (£34,600) has not yet changed. An increase in this threshold to £36,000 is expected in the 2008 Budget and a further issue of Tax Tables will be necessary when it comes into effect, likely from paydays falling on or after 18 April 2008.
