Gross salary converted at ECB reference rates, then taxed under each place’s own rules. Employee income tax and mandatory social security only. How we calculate

How Greece income tax works

Greece's system doesn't reduce to a single band table. It stacks several parallel charges, so Aftertax models it with a dedicated calculator.

What this estimate simplifies

EFKA employee contributions total 13.37% (main pension 6.67%, auxiliary 3.0%, health 2.05%, unemployment 1.65%), capped at EUR 93,143/yr. Income tax 9/22/28/36/44% on gross, less the EUR 777 tax reduction for a taxpayer with no children, which tapers by EUR 20 per EUR 1,000 above EUR 12,000.

Every figure assumes a single filer with no dependents. See the methodology for the full list of assumptions and sources.

Common questions

Is this my exact take-home pay in Greece?

No. It is an estimate for comparison, based on 2025–2026 national tax rules for a single person with no dependents. It does not account for your residency or filing status, reliefs and credits specific to you, local tax variations, or income other than salary. Treat it as a well-informed ballpark, not a payslip.

What does the Greece figure include?

Personal income tax and mandatory employee social security contributions. Employer-side contributions are excluded because they are never part of your take-home pay. EFKA employee contributions total 13.37% (main pension 6.67%, auxiliary 3.0%, health 2.05%, unemployment 1.65%), capped at EUR 93,143/yr. Income tax 9/22/28/36/44% on gross, less the EUR 777 tax reduction for a taxpayer with no children, which tapers by EUR 20 per EUR 1,000 above EUR 12,000.

Why might my real Greece net pay be different?

Common reasons: you are married or have children; you claim pension, mortgage, commuting or other deductions; you live in a region or municipality with a rate above or below the national average used here; the law changed mid-year; or part of your pay is a bonus taxed on a different basis. Always confirm important numbers with an Greece tax professional or the national tax authority.
