Nigeria Payroll Register Generator
A payroll register is the document that ties your whole month’s PAYE remittance together — every employee’s gross pay, pension, NHF, PAYE, and net pay in one place, the same figures your 10th-of-the-month PAYE remittance is based on. Add your staff below and it’s built for you, computed the same way as this site’s own income tax calculator — just applied to a whole team instead of one person.
How Each Employee’s PAYE Is Worked Out
Monthly pay is annualized (×12) so it can be run through the Fourth Schedule’s annual bands. Pension is 8% of Basic + Housing + Transport (not gross), NHF is 2.5% of Basic alone and only applies if that employee has opted in (voluntary since 2026), and rent relief — 20% of declared annual rent, capped at ₦500,000 — reduces chargeable income before the bands apply. The resulting annual tax is divided back by 12 for the monthly figure in the register. Anyone whose annualized gross pay is ₦840,000 or less (the national minimum wage) pays no PAYE at all.
What to Do With the Register
Export it before you remit — CSV or Excel if your accountant or accounting software needs to work with the numbers further, PDF if you want a fixed, dated copy to file alongside your remittance evidence. None of this is saved automatically between visits, so export before you close the tab if you’ll need it again.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is each employee’s PAYE calculated in this payroll register?
Monthly pay is annualized, pension/NHF/rent relief are deducted, the 2026 PAYE bands are applied, then divided back by 12 — the same engine as the standalone income tax calculator.
Where is my staff payroll data stored?
Only in this browser, for this session — not saved automatically or sent anywhere. Export before you close the tab.
This register computes PAYE, pension, and NHF only — it does not model NSITF, ITF, or other non-tax payroll deductions, and does not track the register across sessions. Confirm figures with a qualified payroll professional before remitting.
