  • Resident schedule only. The per-period amount is an allocation of annual tax, not payroll withholding or take-home pay.
  • The eligible single-employee preset includes only the 2026 personal exemption, single standard deduction and capped employment deduction. Basic living expense adjustments are not calculated; use advanced mode for any confirmed adjustment.
  • No insurance, pension, tax credits, alternative minimum tax, overseas-income test or joint-filing optimization is calculated.

How it works

The Ministry of Finance’s 2026 resident table calculates tax as net taxable income multiplied by the applicable rate, less its progressive difference.

Net taxable income = max(0, entered salary − eligible allowances) Annual tax = net taxable income × rate − progressive difference Tax budget per period = annual tax ÷ selected periods

Direct mode skips the salary worksheet. The eligible single-employee preset assumes a full-year resident, single, under 70, no dependents, salary only and entitlement to full deductions. The MOF 2026 table and Note 1 provide NT$101,000 personal exemption, NT$136,000 single standard deduction and employment deduction of min(salary, NT$227,000). Advanced mode replaces this total with your entered deductions. No basic-living-expense adjustment is calculated: the 2026 amount was not verified here. Include any confirmed adjustment in advanced mode. Rounding: no intermediate rounding; displayed amounts have two decimal places.

Worked examples

NT$1 million net taxable income

NT$1,000,000 × 12% − NT$42,700 = NT$77,300 annual tax. Dividing by 12 gives a monthly budget of NT$6,441.67.

Salary worksheet with entered allowances

NT$1,200,000 salary less an illustrative NT$400,000 of eligible allowances leaves NT$800,000 taxable. Tax is NT$800,000 × 12% − NT$42,700 = NT$53,300. The allowance is an example input, not an entitlement.

Eligible single employee preset

NT$1,200,000 salary − NT$101,000 exemption − NT$136,000 standard deduction − NT$227,000 employment deduction = NT$736,000 taxable income. Annual tax is NT$736,000 × 12% − NT$42,700 = NT$45,620, before further applicable adjustments.

Frequently asked questions

Is net taxable income my take-home pay?
No. It is the amount to which the tax schedule applies after eligible allowances. Cash pay can also be reduced by insurance, pension and other payments.
Is the monthly result payroll withholding?
No. It divides the annual estimate into equal budgeting portions. It does not apply a withholding table.
Does this work for non-residents?
No. This tool applies only the 2026 resident progressive schedule and does not determine residence status.
Are standard and salary deductions included automatically?
Yes, in the eligible single-employee preset: NT$101,000 exemption, NT$136,000 standard deduction and up to NT$227,000 employment deduction, capped at salary. Assumes full-year eligibility, single, under 70 and no dependents. Use advanced mode for other deductions or a confirmed basic living expense difference.
Can this prepare a joint or overseas-income return?
No. Joint-filing choices, credits, overseas-income rules and alternative minimum tax are outside this salary worksheet.
