This calculator turns a gross monthly base salary in mainland Portugal (Continente) into the salário líquido on the payslip, with every line shown: Segurança Social, IRS retenção na fonte, the meal allowance and, if you choose, the holiday and Christmas subsidies paid in twelfths (duodécimos). It also shows the net in a subsidy month, the year's net and the employer's cost.
Segurança Social. A worker on the general regime pays 11% of the pay, subsidies included; the employer adds 23.75%. Both rates are boxes you can change.
IRS retenção na fonte. The 2026 tables of Despacho 233-A/2026 apply a marginal rate and subtract a parcela a abater, plus a fixed amount per dependant: 21,43 € for a couple with two earners, 34,29 € for a single parent, 42,86 € for a sole earner. Pay up to 920 € (the 2026 minimum wage) pays no IRS on table I. Three or more dependants lower the rate by one point, and there are separate tables for people with a disability of 60% or more.
Subsidies. The holiday and Christmas subsidies are withheld on their own, never added to the month's pay. Paid in duodécimos, each month carries its share of the subsidies and of their tax, so the monthly net rises while the year's total stays the same.
Meal allowance. The subsídio de refeição is free of IRS up to 6,15 € a day in cash, or 10,46 € by meal card (70% more), from 2026. Anything above is taxed and pays Segurança Social.
The tables are those in force from 1 January 2026, read on the Portal das Finanças on 10 October 2026. The Government announced lower retention from November 2026; check for new tables. IRS withheld is an advance on the annual return. For Brazil, use the Brazil Net Salary Calculator or the Brazil 13th Salary Calculator.

A single person with no dependants earning 1 500 € gross in mainland Portugal takes home 1 166,83 € a month in 2026. Segurança Social takes 165,00 € and IRS retenção na fonte 168,17 €. With the subsidies in full duodécimos the monthly net rises to 1 361,30 €.
The monthly pay is multiplied by the marginal rate of its bracket, then the parcela a abater and an amount per dependant are subtracted. On table I, 1 500 € falls in the bracket up to 1 819 €: 24,10% of 1 500 € is 361,50 €, minus 193,33 €, so 168,17 € is withheld.
On table I, for single people without dependants and couples with two earners, pay up to 920 € a month has no IRS withheld in 2026, matching the minimum wage. A married sole earner pays nothing up to 991 €, and someone with a disability of 60% or more up to 1 694 €.
No. Duodécimos spread the holiday and Christmas subsidies over twelve months instead of paying them in June and November. Each month carries its share of the subsidies and of their own tax, so the monthly net rises, but the year's gross, Segurança Social and IRS stay the same apart from cents of rounding.
The subsídio de refeição is free of IRS up to 6,15 € a day paid in cash, the public-sector amount set by Portaria 51-B/2026, or 10,46 € a day paid by meal card or voucher. Any amount above the limit is added to the taxable pay and pays Segurança Social too.
A married couple, or partners in união de facto, use table I when both have income, with 21,43 € per dependant each. Table III, “casado, único titular”, applies only when one spouse has no income or earns 95% or more of the couple's income, with 42,86 € per dependant.
