How accurate are the calculations?+
Published country pages explain their stored tax-year assumptions, link relevant references and disclose important approximations. Screening models inside the tool are directional, do not claim statutory brackets, and are excluded from landing pages and rankings.
Does the calculator include social security?+
Yes. Employee-side mandatory contributions are shown separately from income tax. Where a system is unusually complex, we use a documented annual approximation rather than hiding it inside one number.
Can I compare salaries in different currencies?+
Yes. Enter one amount in your preferred currency. We convert it into each local currency before applying local tax, then translate the result back for a like-for-like comparison.
How can I compare living costs?+
Purchasing power describes what money can buy locally. Our offer comparison lets you enter your own monthly living costs; we do not rank countries using unverified cost indices.
Is my salary data stored?+
No. All calculations run in your browser. The share button puts inputs in a URL only when you choose to create one; there is no account and no salary database.
Can I calculate the gross salary needed for a target net?+
Yes. Switch to Net to gross above. The engine solves progressively until it finds the gross income that produces your requested take-home amount.
