As an employer, you are required to submit and pay your PAYE (Pay As You Earn) tax bill to HMRC every pay run. This includes tax and both employer and employee National Insurance contributions (NICs). Here’s a quick guide on how to find your PAYE liability and the various methods available to make your payments to HMRC.

How much do I need to pay?

You can find your PAYE liability from the Husky Portal. When you click on the finalised pay run, you will see the total amount due to pay HMRC for the current pay period at the top of the page. 

You can also find it on the P32 report (which is on the third tab of the Summary report, called HMRC liabilities)

You can also log in to your HMRC PAYE Online account to view your PAYE liability.
