Frequently asked questions
How is Korean take-home pay calculated?
From monthly pay, the calculator deducts national pension (employee share 4.75%), health insurance (3.595%) plus long-term care insurance, employment insurance (0.9%), and an estimate of income tax plus local income tax (10% of income tax).
Does this reflect the 2026 pension increase?
Yes. Korea's 2025 pension reform raised the contribution rate from 9% to 9.5% (employee share 4.75%) starting in 2026, rising 0.5%p yearly until it reaches 13%. This calculator uses the 2026 rates and income ceiling (โฉ6.59M/month).
Why might the result differ from my actual payslip?
Employers differ in non-taxable allowances, bonus timing, and year-end settlement results. This calculator is a close approximation based on standard rates.
