20222026

13th and 14th taxed favourably

Your 13th and 14th salary are taxed under the § 67 special-payment rule at just 6.00% (after the allowance), far below the running tariff.

Your tax band and the next euro

Your taxable income of €41,329 sits in the tax band with a 40.00% marginal rate, the rate on your next euro earned. In total, 31.42% of your gross goes to social insurance and income tax. Of an extra €100 gross per month you keep about €49 net. Your gross income is about the Austrian full-time median of €59,220. More in the income tax tariff.

Your pension account grows by €1,054.12 in 2026

Every year 1.78% of your contribution base (current pay, 13th and 14th salary, other payments, up to the maximum contribution base) is credited to your pension account. This year alone adds about €75.29 gross pension a month (paid 14 times), before the yearly revaluation.

How gross to net works in Austria

From the gross salary, the employer first deducts social insurance. It covers health, pension and unemployment insurance and is capped at the maximum contribution base. Income tax then applies to the remaining amount under the progressive income tax tariff. The higher the income, the higher the marginal rate on the topmost portion.

How much net is left also depends on your situation. Credits such as the Familienbonus and the commuter allowance reduce the tax directly. Special payments such as holiday and Christmas pay are taxed at lower rates via the Jahressechstel. The calculator accounts for all of this and reports net, income tax and social insurance separately.

Income tax tariff 2026. The marginal rate applies only to the portion of income within each band, not to the entire income.

Frequently asked questions about gross and net

As a salaried employee in Vienna without children or tax credits you pay no wage tax in 2026 up to €1,590 gross a month. Up to there the commuter tax credit of €496.00 covers the tax on the part of annual income above the tax-free band of €13,539.00 of the income tax tariff. Every other amount is in the wage tax table above.
Social-insurance contributions are deducted from gross first (SV-Beiträge: KV, PV, AV, UV plus the Bundesland housing-fund levy). Income tax is then computed on the remainder under the income-tax tariff (§ 33 EStG), a bracket schedule from 0.00% to 55.00%. Tax credits such as the Verkehrsabsetzbetrag (€496.00) and the Familienbonus Plus (€166.68/month under 18) reduce the tax directly. The 13th and 14th salary are taxed at the favourable § 67 special-payment rate.
€6,930.00 per month in 2026. Social-insurance contributions apply up to the Höchstbeitragsgrundlage; anything above it is SI-free. That is why net pay rises faster per extra euro once you are above the HBG.
With two or more parallel jobs, each is assessed separately for social insurance, each with its own Höchstbeitragsgrundlage. If you exceed it across several jobs you pay SI more than once and reclaim the excess via the annual tax assessment. For income tax, all incomes are assessed together.
The marginal rate is the tax on your next earned euro, relevant for overtime or extra pension contributions. The effective burden is your actual tax divided by gross. It is always lower than the marginal rate because the first €13,539.00 are tax-free, see the income-tax tariff. The full gap between employer cost and net is the tax wedge.
No. Tax classes are a German concept. In Austria the same progressive income tax tariff applies to everyone; personal circumstances work through tax credits such as the Familienbonus Plus, the single-earner or single-parent credit or the commuter allowance. That is why an Austrian wage tax table has one column per salary and computes your credits in directly.
Holiday and Christmas pay are not taxed by the tariff but favourably under § 67 EStG: after an allowance of €620 a flat 6.00% applies within the annual sixth. More under special payments.
Yes, as a preview: the wage tax table above already has a "Net 2027" column with the published 2027 values. You can also switch the whole calculator to 2027 with the year picker.
All values come from primary sources: § 33 and § 67 EStG (RIS), the annual EStG inflation-adjustment regulation, the social-insurance values regulation, plus the ÖGK contribution tables and BMF payroll-tax guidelines. The full term and source list is in the glossary.
