How Income Tax Is Calculated in the Philippines

Income tax in the Philippines is based on annualized taxable income after employee statutory deductions. This calculator estimates withholding tax first, then uses the result to estimate net pay and take-home pay.

SSS

Estimated using employee share against a capped monthly salary credit. Replace with the official bracket table for production use.

PhilHealth

Estimated using a percentage premium with employee share split. Salary floor and ceiling are configurable.

Pag-IBIG

Estimated using employee contribution rate against the configured compensation ceiling.

BIR withholding tax

Estimated using the annual compensation income tax table effective from 2023 onward.

SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG Salary Deductions

Aside from income tax, employees in the Philippines usually see salary deductions for SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG. These deductions lower taxable pay and affect the final take-home amount.

This calculator estimates those salary deductions alongside withholding tax so users can compare gross salary, net pay, and take-home pay more clearly.
