How the High Income Child Benefit Charge Works (2026/27)
Under statutory thresholds, the High Income Child Benefit Charge applies if you or your partner earn over £60,000 per year in adjusted net income:
- Under £60,000: 100% of Child Benefit kept (0% tax charge).
- £60,000 to £80,000: Tax charge equals 1% of total Child Benefit for every £200 earned over £60,000.
- Over £80,000: 100% tax charge (the full Child Benefit is repaid via Self Assessment).
