Disclaimer: This tool is for guidance only. Actual savings may vary based on your income, KiwiSaver settings, or entitlements like Working for Families or student loans. The calculator is based on a Deloitte-prepared tax model and is intended to help you estimate what’s possible.
Why this matters for your team
Public transport is already cheaper than driving – but when you use pre-tax dollars to cover fares, the savings get even better.
This calculator uses current NZ tax rates to estimate how much an employee could save by using pre-tax income to pay for public transport. Spoiler: it's often hundreds of dollars.
Impact for businesses
The Extraordinary pre-tax transport benefit is approved by the IRD and structured for FBT exemption. It’s fully compliant by design – and this calculator reflects the same logic used in our Deloitte-prepared model, so you can trust the numbers.
