It runs the net salary calculation backwards.

How it's calculated

Gross pay loses 8.8% to Social Insurance (up to €5,742 a month) and 2.65% to GeSY.
Tax is worked out on yearly taxable income with the 2026 bands, starting with a €22,000 tax-free band, and spread over the year's salaries.
We look for the lowest gross salary that gives at least the net you asked for, to the cent.

For €2,000 net a month, with 12 salaries and no children, you need a gross salary of €2,305.67.

Why does gross rise faster than net?

Above the tax-free band, every extra euro pays tax at its band rate on top of contributions. So the gap grows as pay goes up.

Does the 13th salary count?

Yes, if you choose it. With 13 salaries the year's tax is spread over 13 payments, so the gross needed for the same net changes a little.

Are employer contributions included?

No. The gross salary is what the contract says. For the cost to the business, use the employer cost calculator.
