How Nettopalkka (net salary) in Finland is calculated

Finnish payroll deducts employee pension (TyEL 7.30%), unemployment (0.89%) and health contributions (1.1% + 0.88%), about 10.17% of gross together in 2026.

Income tax combines a progressive state scale with a flat municipal rate (roughly 7.5%), reduced by substantial earned-income deductions. This simplified model applies a combined progressive tax. Estimate, not tax advice.
