Tax and income calculator
Enter your annual gross salary into the calculator, select your city, and click “calculate.” You will then be presented with an approximate overview that includes your expenses for taxes and the cost of living. Please note that this is only a rough estimate.
This calculator currently determines taxes based on Tax Class 1 – for employees who are single or for those whose spouses live abroad. Understanding tax classes is very important as it changes based on your current situation and so does the corresponding tax rate.
The expenses are also calculated for a single person household. Having family, spouse or a child/children can affect your expenses.
We will soon be releasing another version of the calculator that can take other tax classes and family sizes into consideration.
