Global Take-Home Pay & Income Tax Calculator (2026)
Estimate your net salary, income tax, social security contributions, and per-paycheck take-home pay across 23 countries and all 50 US states + DC. Pre-tax and post-tax deductions stay synced with your chosen pay frequency — weekly, biweekly, semi-monthly, monthly, 13th / 14th salary — so the numbers always match what lands in your bank account.
How this calculator works
We apply each country's progressive tax brackets, standard deduction or personal allowance, mandatory social contributions (FICA, NI, CPP, CPF, EPF, AHV, etc.), and any surcharges (e.g. India 4% cess). State and provincial taxes are layered on top for the US, Canada, and India. All calculations run entirely in your browser — no income data is sent to a server.
Pay frequency & deduction sync
Switch the input basis between Annual and Per paycheck to enter contributions exactly as they appear on your payslip. Each field is labeled with the active basis (yearly or per pay period) and the calculator annualizes them automatically before applying tax rules.
