Your full financial snapshot as a Gibraltar contractor or sole trader
Contracting or working as a sole trader in Gibraltar means no employer handling tax, social insurance or pension contributions on your behalf — you need a clear picture of all of it together. This calculator pulls your net income, social insurance, pension relief and mortgage capacity into a single financial profile.
What your profile brings together
- Net income after income tax (the lower of ABS or GIBS) and self-employed social insurance at 20%, capped at £2,923.83 per year
- A recommended reserve for the tax and social insurance that isn't deducted automatically the way it would be for an employee
- Pension contribution headroom under the personal pension / Retirement Annuity Contract cap (the lower of 20% of earned income or £35,000) or the occupational scheme cap (about one-sixth of assessable income)
- An estimate of mortgage affordability based on your net trading income
