FAQ

About the Net salary calculator

Does the dependant count include myself?

Yes. Include yourself in the number of qualifying family members, and add only family members who meet the basic deduction requirements such as the annual income limit.

Why is the number of children aged 8 to 20 entered separately?

The National Tax Service withholding tax table applies a separate tax credit based on how many qualifying family members are children aged 8 to 20.

Why does the amount differ from my payslip?

The actual amount depends on the pay reported by your employer, non-taxable items, deduction eligibility, year-end adjustments, and additional deductions.
