# Net Salary World

> Net Salary World answers "how much of my salary is left after tax" with one page per question, in the local language ("£35,000 after tax", "3.000 € brutto in netto", "€ 3.500 bruto netto"). It covers United Kingdom (2026/27), Germany (2026), Netherlands (2026), Canada (2026; Ontario, Québec, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba) and Australia (2026–27). Each country has its own engine that follows the tax authority's payroll rules for the tax year in force; every rate and threshold has a named source, and the rules were last checked on 2026-09-27. Figures are estimates for a standard employee, not tax advice.

The main figure on every page is take-home pay: gross salary minus income tax and the employee's social contributions, per pay period as the country is paid (monthly in Germany and the Netherlands, where people search monthly gross; per year and per month or fortnight elsewhere). Each page also shows every deduction under its local name with its rate, the effective rate, a period table and comparisons across tax classes or regions.

Default assumptions, stated on every page and changeable in each calculator: United Kingdom: Tax code 1257L, taxpayer in England, no student loan, no pension contribution, 2026/27 rates; Germany: Monthly salary, tax class I, no church tax, no children, statutory health insurance (2.9 % add-on rate), North Rhine-Westphalia, 2026 rules; Netherlands: Monthly salary, payroll tax credit applied, 8 % holiday pay, no pension contribution, below state pension age, 2026 rules; Canada: Employment income only, living in Ontario on December 31, basic personal credits, no RRSP deduction, 2026 rates; Australia: Resident for the whole year, tax-free threshold claimed, no HELP debt, private hospital cover, super paid on top, 2026–27 rates.

Tax years switch automatically on each country's start date (United Kingdom 6 April, Germany 1 January, Netherlands 1 January, Canada 1 January, Australia 1 July). A value that could not yet be confirmed with an official source is flagged next to the figure, and each methodology page lists how every value was verified.
