Notes
- In December your employer compares the tax withheld during the year with the annual tax and adjusts the last payroll (annualization).
How this was computed
Monthly taxable income = basic salary + taxable allowances − employee SSS, PhilHealth and Pag-IBIG shares. Annual taxable income = monthly taxable income × 12 + bonuses above ₱ 90,000 (13th month pay and other benefits are tax-free up to that amount). The tax per payday uses the BIR withholding table for your pay frequency (12 paydays a year), in force since 2023. Effective rate on gross income: 3.1%. Tables: 2026.

Worked example
With a ₱ 30,000 monthly salary and ₱ 30,000 of bonuses, annual taxable income is ₱ 330,600.00. The annual tax is ₱ 12,090.00 and ₱ 1,007.55 is withheld each month, an effective rate of 3.1% on gross income.
How it works
The calculator deducts your employee SSS, PhilHealth and Pag-IBIG shares from your basic salary and taxable allowances to get your taxable income. It applies the BIR withholding table for your pay frequency to find the tax per payday, and the annual table to find the tax for the year. 13th month pay and other bonuses are tax-free up to ₱ 90,000; non-taxable (de minimis) allowances are left out.
