How Зарплата на руки (take-home pay) in Ukraine is calculated

Ukrainian payroll is a flat calculation: 18% personal income tax (PDFO) plus a 5% military levy (raised from 1.5% at the end of 2024), both on gross, giving net = gross x 0.77.

The 22% unified social contribution (YeSV) is paid by the employer and does not reduce take-home. That makes the employee net straightforward. Estimate, not tax advice.

Frequently asked questions

What is the take-home for 25,000 UAH in Ukraine?

18% PDFO (4,500) plus the 5% military levy (1,250) come off, leaving 19,250 UAH — exactly 77% of gross.

What is the military levy?

A payroll levy earmarked for defence, raised to 5% at the end of 2024, charged alongside the 18% income tax.

Does the employee pay social contributions?
