Salary after tax calculator
Use this salary calculator to estimate take-home pay after income tax, employee contributions and other deductions. Enter your monthly salary and adjust the assumptions to match your payslip.
How this calculation works
For ordinary private-sector employees, excluding kasambahay, government employees and self-employed workers. SSS uses salary-credit brackets and a 5% employee share, PhilHealth uses 2.5% of basic pay within its floor and ceiling, Pag-IBIG uses the employee rate and ₱10,000 salary cap. Tax is an annualized regular-pay estimate divided by 12, not an exact payslip withholding calculation. Bonuses, non-taxable allowances, variable pay and year-end adjustments are excluded. PhilHealth uses the latest schedule verified here (2025), review your actual payslip or override the contribution.

From monthly salary to take-home pay
This estimate subtracts mandatory employee contributions from regular taxable monthly pay, annualizes the remainder, applies the table and divides tax by 12. Actual payroll withholding and year-end reconciliation can differ. Other payroll deductions reduce take-home pay but do not automatically reduce taxable pay.
SSS uses a 5% employee share of salary credits from ₱5,000 to ₱35,000 under the January 2025 schedule. PhilHealth uses a 2.5% employee share with a ₱10,000–₱100,000 basic-salary base under the verified 2025 schedule. Pag-IBIG uses 1% for monthly compensation up to ₱1,500 and 2% above, capped at a ₱10,000 fund salary. The official contribution schedules are linked below, enter your actual mandatory deductions when they differ.
Qualifying minimum-wage exemptions depend on the pay and worker’s status, not merely on being below an arbitrary monthly figure. This tool’s exempt mode is limited to qualifying exempt pay. For bonuses, use the 13th-month pay calculator, for independent work, read the online-income tax guide.
