What is the Brutto-Netto-Rechner?

German employees pay income tax (Lohnsteuer), solidarity surcharge (Solidaritätszuschlag), and mandatory social insurance contributions. The combination of progressive income tax (up to 45%) and social security (roughly 20% employee share) means a gross salary of €60,000 yields around €38,000–€39,000 net. Your Steuerklasse (I–VI) determines your basic allowance and significantly affects withholding.

Formula

Net Salary = Gross − Income Tax − Soli − Church Tax − Health − Pension − Unemployment − Care Insurance. Income tax is progressive on taxable income after the basic allowance.
T_income
= Income tax on (Gross − basic allowance)
T_soli
= 5.5% of income tax when income tax > €18,130
T_church
= 8–9% of income tax if church member
SS_employee
= Employee half of social security (≈20.15% of gross)
