Tax Code Guide
N
Tax Code N (Marriage Allowance Transferor)
What does this code mean?
The N suffix means you have transferred 10% of your Personal Allowance (£1,260) to your spouse or civil partner. Your Personal Allowance is reduced to £11,310. This is beneficial when you earn less than £12,570 and your partner is a basic rate taxpayer — it saves your household up to £252 per year in tax.
Who gets this code?
The lower earner in a couple who does not use their full Personal Allowance. You must be married or in a civil partnership.
