UK payslip generator (2026/27): PAYE and National Insurance computed, not typed

Enter the employer, employee, period and gross pay; income tax, NI, student loan and pension are computed by the same engine as our UK take-home pay calculator from the 2026/27 HMRC rates and the tax code — so the payslip adds up the way HMRC's does. For company directors paying themselves, small employers without payroll software, and employees replacing a lost payslip. Preview free, clean PDF $5.99.

What this generator will and won't do

• Computes, never copies, the taxes. Every tax line comes from the current tables (see the methodology and change log); there is no box to type a tax amount into.
• Says who made it. Each document carries a “prepared by the employee/contractor with paysums.com — not an employer record” line, the date and a document ID, so whoever reads it knows exactly what it is. An honest statement is a believable one.
• Is not for misrepresenting income. Creating a document to overstate income or invent employment to obtain housing, credit, a vehicle or benefits is fraud. Keys used that way are revoked and we cooperate with fraud investigations.

When a self-generated statement is accepted

Alongside primary evidence — bank statements showing the deposits, tax returns, a P60 or P45, or a signed letter from the payer. It fills the gap when the payer issues nothing (cash-paid or very small employers, contractors paid by invoice) or the original was lost. Use it as the clean summary on top of the raw evidence, not instead of it.
