How much can I contribute to SIPP

Posted Tue, 28 Mar 2023 10:10:30 GMT by
I understand the contribution is my yearly income or £40,000, whichever is lower. For my yearly income, is it the gross amount (before deduction of tax and NI) or net amount (take home amount after tax and NI)? I undersand that the upper limit includes my SIPP contribution,as well as the company pension plan (employer and employee) contribution too?

Hi,

The maximum you can pay to your pension scheme, is the lower of your gross salary or £40000.00.  

The maximum you and your employer can pay in, is £40000.00.  

Any sum above this threshold, is subject to tax and needs to be reported in a Self Assessment Tax Return.

Thank you.
