Taxes Included in This Take-Home Pay Calculator

• Income Tax: Malta has a progressive income tax system, with four tax brackets ranging from 0% to 35%. The thresholds between brackets depend on the taxpayer's family situation, which you can select in the calculator form under More Options.
• National Insurance: In Malta, this contribution is deducted from an individual's salary to help fund social security benefits, including healthcare, pensions, and unemployment benefits. Both employees and employers contribute 10% of the employee's gross salary to National Insurance.
• Government Bonuses: Employers in Malta pay two types of mandatory bonuses, known as the Statutory Bonus and the Weekly Allowance. They are paid twice a year, with the Statutory Bonus paid in June and December, and the Weekly Allowance paid in March and September. All registered employees, including part-timers who work full-time elsewhere, are entitled to them. These payments are not included in the salary calculator's results by default, but can be added using the Government Bonuses option.
• Student National Insurance Reduction: Students enrolled in a full-time course of studies or instruction under the Student-Worker Scheme, or a similar scheme, are eligible for a reduction in National Insurance. While the rate remains 10%, student social security contributions are capped at €7.94 per week, or €413 per year. You can apply this reduction in the tax calculator under More Options.
