NSSF contribution calculator Tanzania

Every registered employer pays a contribution to NSSF for each employee. Enter the wage and how it is split to see each share.

The employer can also choose to pay the full amount without deducting anything from the employee.

Employee's share

How it's calculated

  1. The total contribution is 20% of the employee's wage.
  2. The employee's share is at most 10%: either 10% employee and 10% employer, or 5% employee and 15% employer.
  3. If a contribution is paid late, NSSF adds 5% of the unpaid amount for each month or part of a month.

An example

On a wage of TSh 1,000,000, NSSF is TSh 200,000: TSh 100,000 from the employee and TSh 100,000 from the employer.
