Supported scope

Annual income tax estimate for single assessment, without children or special-rate income. Enter your already-calculated taxable income (zu versteuerndes Einkommen), after eligible deductions; do not enter gross salary. Includes the 2026 income tax tariff and solidarity surcharge. Excludes social insurance, church tax, child allowances, joint assessment and tax-class payroll withholding. This is not a gross-to-net salary calculator.

Your estimate · EUR

How to read the result

Enter your annual taxable income after all eligible deductions. The tariff rounds this base and income tax down to whole euros. The result shows income tax and solidarity surcharge for single assessment without children; the monthly equivalent is for comparison only. It does not estimate wages after social insurance or replace a payroll withholding calculation.

Use the scope above to decide whether the estimate applies to you. A full payslip can contain deductions and adjustments this model does not calculate.
