In a post on his official X account, the President urged Nigerians to try a newly launched Personal Income Tax calculator.
According to him, the calculator allows users to estimate how much tax they would pay under the new laws compared with current rates, making the changes easier to understand.
Tinubu explained that the tax reforms, which take effect in January 2026, are aimed at building a fairer system, one that does not punish poverty or put additional pressure on vulnerable citizens.
He said, “A fair tax system must never punish poverty or weigh down the most vulnerable.
“With the new tax laws I recently signed, taking effect from January 2026, we have lifted this burden and created a path of equity, fairness, and true redistribution in our economy.
“A Personal Income Tax Calculator has been developed. It allows you to check your estimated tax under the new laws against what you currently pay.
“It shows clearly how these reforms protect low-income earners, ensure progressivity, and simplify compliance in order to deliver a transparent system that works for all.”
He further called on Nigerians to believe in the reforms and in the country’s future, saying “Together, we are renewing hope in the Nigeria of our dreams.
“Take a bet on our country. Bet on Nigeria to work for you, your family, and your community.”
The personal income tax calculator is now available at https://fiscalreforms.ng/index.php/pit-calculator/.
