Australia levies a 10% GST on most goods and services and a four-bracket progressive income tax for residents — 0%, 16%, 30%, 37%, 45%.
Australia's Goods and Services Tax is a flat 10% on most goods and services. Basic food, education, healthcare, and certain exports are GST-free. Businesses with annual turnover above $75,000 must register.
Tax-free up to $18,200. Then 16% to $45,000, 30% to $135,000, 37% to $190,000, and 45% above. Stage 3 cuts took effect from 1 July 2024, slightly reducing rates on the middle brackets.
Medicare levy (2% modelled in the Salary Calculator), low-income tax offset (LITO), HECS-HELP repayments, capital gains, and superannuation tax aren't included. Use the ATO for filing.

No, not in the tax calculator. The 2% Medicare levy for residents above the low-income threshold is modelled in the Salary Calculator on this site. Higher earners without private hospital cover may also pay the Medicare Levy Surcharge (1–1.5%), which isn't modelled.
HECS-HELP compulsory repayments are not modelled here. They begin once your income exceeds the repayment threshold (around $54,000) and scale from 1% to 10% based on income tier. They come straight out of your salary alongside tax.
