How to read this coverage map
A public local tool is an implemented calculator with a locale-specific methodology. A public local guide explains an implemented surface. Global support is market-neutral decision help. Official context can identify a boundary without making it a Wage101 feature. Unsupported or deferred means no public local calculator is represented here.
| Surface | Current status | Link treatment |
|---|---|---|
| /en-nz/tools/ | Renderable partial local catalog; noindex | Linked and labelled as partial |
| /en-nz/blog/ | Indexable with 3 public local companion articles | Linked as the locale guide index |
| /en-nz/data/ | No published dataset or source page; route returns 404 | Not linked |
What is implemented now
The exact public set contains 3 local calculators. Each row keeps the calculator and its methodology together; calculation logic, rounding and edge cases remain on those surfaces.
The registered public local companion set contains 3 articles: “New Zealand take-home pay for 2026–27” (/en-nz/blog/nz-new-zealand-take-home-pay-guide/); “New Zealand minimum wage from 1 April 2026” (/en-nz/blog/nz-minimum-wage-nz-guide/); “New Zealand public holiday pay” (/en-nz/blog/nz-public-holiday-pay-nz-guide/). Each article stays paired with its exact implemented calculator boundary.
| Public local tool | Tool route | Methodology route | Implemented boundary |
|---|---|---|---|
| New Zealand Take-Home Pay Calculator | /en-nz/tools/nz-new-zealand-take-home-pay/ | /en-nz/tools/nz-new-zealand-take-home-pay/methodology/ | Bounded 2026–27 payroll for supported M, M SL, ACC, KiwiSaver or ESCT and extra-pay cases. |
| New Zealand Minimum Wage Calculator | /en-nz/tools/nz-minimum-wage-nz/ | /en-nz/tools/nz-minimum-wage-nz/methodology/ | Adult, starting-out and training minimum-wage comparisons from 1 April 2026. |
| New Zealand Public Holiday Pay Calculator | /en-nz/tools/nz-public-holiday-pay-nz/ | /en-nz/tools/nz-public-holiday-pay-nz/methodology/ | Supported not-worked and worked public-holiday pay paths. |
Choose the right path
These are routing checks, not independent calculations. If a required fact is uncertain or a listed exclusion applies, stay with the official source or seek appropriately qualified help instead of stretching a bounded result.
Three non-numeric routing examples
- For take-home pay, check that the tax code and pay frequency match the methodology before using the payroll calculator.
- For minimum wage, choose a rate only after confirming adult, starting-out or training status externally.
- For public-holiday pay, separate worked and not-worked cases and confirm otherwise-working-day facts before calculating.
Official sources and how they are used
Every source below was accessed on 2026-07-28. The freshness note identifies whether it is load-bearing for an implemented tool or context for a deferred boundary. The hub does not reproduce rate tables or turn context-only evidence into a feature.
| Official source | Allowed use | Required caveat |
|---|---|---|
| IRD payroll calculations and business-rules specification | Load-bearing 2026–27 bounded payroll, ACC, student-loan and KiwiSaver or ESCT evidence. | Only the tax codes and payroll cases named by the methodology are supported. |
| Employment New Zealand minimum-wage rates and types | Load-bearing adult, starting-out and training rates from 1 April 2026. | The calculator does not decide eligibility classification. |
| Employment New Zealand public-holiday pay | Load-bearing relevant-daily-pay, average-daily-pay and time-and-a-half context. | The user must confirm otherwise-working-day and alternative-holiday facts. |
Global support is not local policy
The Global guides below are market-neutral support only. They can help frame a comparison or organise user-supplied inputs, but they do not validate local New Zealand rules, supply a local legal default or expand the implemented local set.
| Global guide | Route | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Gross-to-net using your own tax rate guide | /blog/gross-to-net-pay-using-your-tax-rate-guide/ | Global, market-neutral support only |
| Holiday pay using your own rule guide | /blog/holiday-pay-using-your-rule-guide/ | Global, market-neutral support only |
| Total compensation guide | /blog/total-compensation-guide/ | Global, market-neutral support only |
New Zealand coverage questions
- Is this complete New Zealand pay and employment coverage?
- No. It is an exact map of 3 currently implemented local calculators and their stated boundaries. The exclusions above remain unsupported or deferred.
- Does this hub calculate a pay, tax or entitlement result?
- No. The hub routes readers. Inputs, formulas, evidence, rounding and results remain with each linked calculator and methodology.
- Is a public Wage101 DataHub available for New Zealand?
- No. There is no published en-nz dataset or source page, so this hub does not link the current 404 data route.
