Taxes Included in This Salary Calculator


Tax Year: 2025 – 2026

  • Income Tax (Impuesto sobre la Renta) is a progressive tax, ranging from 13% to 53%, depending on the autonomous community. The standard personal allowance is €5,550 for individuals under 65 years old, who are not married and have no dependents. Spain uses a pay-as-you-earn tax system, where the employer withholds the employee's taxes and contributions from the gross pay, transferring the payment directly to the tax authorities on a monthly basis.
  • Beckham Law (art. 93 Ley IRPF) is a special tax regime that allows eligible foreign workers to pay a flat 24% income tax on up to €600,000 of Spanish-source earnings per year for up to six years. To qualify, you must not have been a Spanish tax resident in the last five years, and you must apply within six months of arrival in the country. You can enable it in the "More Options" section in the calculator.
  • Social Security Contributions (Contribuciones a la Seguridad Social) are paid partly by the employee and partly by the employer. The standard rate for the employee is 6.35%, while the employer pays at least 29.90% of an employee's salary, depending on the occupation. Social security contributions in Spain have a minimum and maximum cap determined by the employee's level of studies. To give a good indication on the lowest take-home pay an employee can expect, our calculator assumes the highest minimum and maximum caps.
