How it works

Marriage Allowance lets you transfer £1,260 of your Personal Allowance to your husband, wife or civil partner. This reduces their tax by up to £252 in the tax year.

One partner must be a non-taxpayer (income usually below £12,570).
The other partner must be a Basic Rate taxpayer (income usually between £12,571 and £50,270).

If you or your partner were born before 6 April 1935, you might benefit more from Married Couple's Allowance instead.
