EIS contribution calculator

Enter the monthly wages to see the EIS contribution. You and your employer each pay the amount shown.

The amounts come from the Act 800 contribution table published by PERKESO.

How it's calculated

The wages fall into a band of the table. Up to RM500 the bands are uneven; above that they are RM100 wide.
Each band has a fixed contribution, the same for employer and employee.
Wages above RM 6,000 pay the same as the ceiling.

On RM2,500 a month, EIS is RM4.90 from you and RM4.90 from your employer: RM9.80 in total.

How much EIS do I pay?

Roughly 0.2% of your wages, read from the band in the PERKESO table. On RM3,000 it is RM5.90.

Is there a maximum EIS contribution?

Yes. Wages are counted up to RM 6,000 a month, so the highest contribution is RM11.90 each.

Does my employer pay EIS too?

Yes, the same amount as you. The table has one column for the employer and one for the employee, and they match on every row.
