A simple breakdown of New Brunswick’s tax rates by income range.
Think of it like a ‘tax ladder’: at the lowest rung, you don’t pay any tax on income below your basic personal amount (below). As your income climbs into a higher range, you don’t pay the higher rate on all your income — just on the portion that falls into that range. You can use a tax calculator (like the EY 2025 Personal tax calculator) to calculate your estimated after-tax income.
Remember, these numbers are just guidelines; your personal situation and tax credits will change what you actually owe.
