What is the Brazil CLT Take-Home Salary Calculator?
CLT (Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho) employees in Brazil have two main mandatory deductions: INSS (social security, 7.5-14% progressive) and IRPF (income tax, 0-27.5%). The employer additionally pays 8% FGTS (Fundo de Garantia) into a fund owned by the employee, accessible on dismissal or home purchase. This calculator shows net take-home after the employee-side deductions.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum wage in Brazil in 2025?
The federal minimum wage (salário mínimo) is R$1,518/month from January 2025, after a 7.5% increase. At this level, workers are exempt from IRPF and pay INSS at 7.5%.
What is FGTS and does it reduce take-home pay?
FGTS (Fundo de Garantia do Tempo de Serviço) is 8% of gross salary paid by the employer into a fund in the employee's name. It does NOT reduce take-home pay — it is an additional employer cost. Workers can access FGTS if dismissed without cause or to buy property.
What benefits are mandatory for CLT employees in Brazil?
Mandatory CLT benefits include: 13th salary (13° salário), 30 days vacation + 1/3 vacation bonus, FGTS (8% employer), INSS, Vale Transporte (if needed for commute), and a weekly paid rest day.
How is income from bonuses and 13th salary taxed?
Bonuses and the 13th salary are added to regular income and subject to IRPF at the regular progressive rates. However, vacation pay (1/3 additional) is exempt from IRPF. The annual IRPF declaration adjusts any over/under-withheld amounts.
What is the difference between CLT and PJ (Pessoa Jurídica) in Brazil?
CLT employees have formal employment protections, FGTS, 13th salary, and vacation pay. PJ (contractor via company) workers earn gross PJ income, pay their own INSS (up to 20%), IRPF, and service taxes (ISS ~2-5%). PJ is often higher gross but fewer protections.
