• ng_paye_calculate read-only

  Calculate Nigeria PAYE income tax and net (take-home) salary under the Nigeria Tax Act 2025, effective for the 2026 tax year. Returns monthly take-home, monthly PAYE, the effective rate, and the full band-by-band working, with the statutory source and verification date. Handles pension (8%), NHF (2.5%, voluntary), rent relief (20% of rent, capped at ₦500,000), and the minimum-wage exemption. Figures are informational — verify with the tax authority. Interactive version: https://zaleso.com/ng/paye

• ng_gross_for_take_home read-only

  Work backwards from a target take-home to the gross salary that produces it, under the Nigeria Tax Act 2025 (2026 tax year). This is the question employers and contractors actually ask — "what must I pay for them to clear ₦500,000 a month" — and it cannot be answered by applying a rate, because PAYE is banded. Returns the required gross with the full band-by-band working and the statutory source. Informational only — verify with the tax authority. Interactive version: https://zaleso.com/ng/net-salary

  Parameters:

  • takeHome (required) — number — Target take-home (net) pay in naira, after PAYE and deductions.
  • period — string — Whether takeHome is monthly or annual. Default monthly.
  • includeNhf — boolean — Deduct the 2.5% National Housing Fund contribution — voluntary for private-sector employees since 2023. Default false.
  • includePension — boolean — Deduct the 8% employee pension contribution (PRA 2014). Default true.
  • rentPaidAnnual — number — Annual rent actually paid, in naira. Unlocks rent relief (20% of rent, capped at ₦500,000).

• ng_vat_calculate read-only

  Add Nigerian VAT to a net amount, or extract the VAT already contained in a VAT-inclusive amount. Uses the verified statutory rate from the data layer and returns it with its source and effective date — never an assumed rate. Informational only — verify with the tax authority. Interactive version: https://zaleso.com/invoice

  Parameters:

  • amount (required) — number — The amount in naira.
  • mode — string — 'add' treats amount as VAT-exclusive and adds VAT; 'extract' treats it as VAT-inclusive and backs the VAT out. Default add.
  • year — integer — Tax year. Default 2026.

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• invoice_totals read-only

  Compute invoice totals from line items: per-line totals, subtotal, an optional discount, optional tax (the verified Nigeria VAT preset or any rate you name), a deposit already paid, and the balance due. Country-agnostic. The interactive version also produces the PDF: https://zaleso.com/invoice

  Parameters:

  • lines (required) — array — Line items, up to 20.
  • vat — boolean — Charge the verified Nigeria VAT rate. Only when the seller is VAT-registered in Nigeria. Default false.

  • currency — string — Default NGN. Affects formatting only.

  • discountPercent — number — Discount as a percentage, 0-100.

• amount_in_words read-only

  Spell a monetary amount in words, the way a cheque or an invoice requires — "Four Thousand and Fifty Naira and Seventy-Five Kobo Only". Supports NGN, USD, EUR and GBP with the correct major and minor unit names. It is the row that goes above the signature line on the invoices at https://zaleso.com/invoice

  Parameters:

  • amount (required) — number — The amount, e.g. 4050.75
  • currency — string — Default NGN

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• base64_convert read-only

  Encode text to Base64, or decode Base64 back to text. UTF-8 throughout, so accented text, emoji, Arabic, Devanagari and CJK survive the round trip — the naive btoa/atob version does not. Interactive version: https://zaleso.com/base64

  Parameters:

  • text (required) — string — The text to encode, or the Base64 to decode.
  • mode — string — Default encode

  Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no

• usd_ngn_convert read-only

  Convert between Nigerian naira and US dollars, pounds, euros and other currencies at the Central Bank of Nigeria's official rate — the latest, or the rate that applied on a past date. The dollar uses the NFEM rate (the volume-weighted average CBN publishes); other currencies use CBN's selling rate. Never a parallel-market figure. Returns the converted amount with the rate, the trading date it applies to, and the CBN source. Interactive version: https://zaleso.com/ng/fx

  Parameters:

  • amount (required) — number — The amount to convert.
  • to — string — Only when from is NGN: the currency to convert to. Default USD.
  • date — string — Use the rate that applied on this date, as YYYY-MM-DD, from 2024-12-02 onwards — e.g. an invoice date. On a weekend or public holiday the last trading day's rate applies. Default: the latest rate.
  • from — string — The currency the amount is in. Default USD.
