FAQ
Why is it different from my payslip?+
Income tax uses an NTS simplified table at the company, and year-end settlement causes refunds or additional charges. This estimate uses a progressive approximation with ±5% error.
Non-taxable limits?+
₩200,000/month meal allowance, ₩200,000/month personal car allowance, transit, etc.
Social insurance rates?+
National Pension 4.5%, Health 3.545%, Long-term care 12.95% of health, Employment 0.9%. These are employee portions — employers match.
Take-home for ₩50M salary?+
After deductions, about ₩3.5–3.6M/month (single dependent). Varies with dependents and children.
Does it include severance?+
Calculates regular salary only (bonuses and severance separate). Confirm scope in your contract — companies differ.
Performance bonuses and incentives?+
Taxed separately at payout. Tax often hits harder than regular salary — expect about 30% withheld.
