What Are Gross and Net Salary?
Gross salary is the total amount the employer commits to on the payslip; net salary is what the employee actually receives after legal deductions. In Turkey the main deductions from gross are the employee's social-security share, unemployment-insurance share, income tax and stamp duty. This tool applies these deductions at the rates you enter to give a rough net-salary estimate.
Why Are the Rates Editable?
Tax rates, brackets, the minimum-wage exemption and the social-security ceiling change every year in Turkey, and income tax is cumulative (progressive across the year). To avoid presenting a fixed, out-of-date rate as if it were correct, this tool leaves the rates to you: the defaults are common employee-share rates (social security 14%, unemployment 1%, stamp duty 0.759%), and you enter income tax as a flat rate. This makes the tool a transparent calculator.
Important Notice
This tool does not replace an official payslip and is for information only. Your real net salary varies with the cumulative income-tax base, minimum-wage income-tax and stamp-duty exemptions, the social-security ceiling, allowances and incentives. For an exact figure, consult your employer's HR/payroll team, your accountant or the social-security authority.
