Frequently asked questions
Is this salary result official?
No. This is a planning estimate based on the values you enter. Always check official tax, payroll and social insurance sources for authoritative figures.
Should I use gross or net salary?
Select the type in the calculator. If you use gross, enter an estimated deduction percentage to calculate the net amount. For direct take-home comparison, use net salary.
How much rent is safe for this salary?
A common planning rule is to keep rent below 30–35% of net income. Enter your rent in the calculator to see your housing percentage based on your own numbers.
Why does the calculator ask for my own expenses?
Average costs can vary widely by neighbourhood, lifestyle and household size. Using your own numbers gives a more useful estimate than generic averages.
Can this salary be enough for a couple or family?
Household costs depend on income for all earners and total shared expenses. Enter combined figures or use the calculator twice to compare individual and combined scenarios.
