This calculator turns a monthly gross salary (brüt maaş) into net pay for each month of 2026, the way a Turkish payroll does it.
The premiums. Social security takes 14% of gross from the employee: 9% for pension and 5% for general health insurance (Law 5510, Article 81). Unemployment insurance takes 1% more (Law 4447, Article 49). Both stop at the premium ceiling, nine times the minimum wage: ₺297,270 a month in 2026.
Income tax. What is left is the tax base. The 2026 tariff for wages is 15% up to ₺190,000, 20% up to ₺400,000, 27% up to ₺1,500,000, 35% up to ₺5,300,000 and 40% above. The base adds up through the year, so a salary that starts at 15% moves into 20% and later 27%, and net pay falls in the second half of the year.
The minimum wage exemption. Since 2022 the part of every wage equal to the minimum wage less premiums, ₺28,075.50 in 2026, is free of income tax (Article 23/18), and the part equal to the gross minimum wage, ₺33,030, is free of stamp duty. The exemption is worth ₺4,211.33 a month to June, ₺4,537.75 in July and ₺5,615.10 from August.
A worked example. ₺60,000 gross: SGK ₺8,400, unemployment ₺600, tax base ₺51,000. Tax at 15% is ₺7,650, less the ₺4,211.33 exemption, ₺3,438.67. Stamp duty on ₺26,970 is ₺204.70. Net: ₺47,356.63 in January, ₺539,684.83 over the year.
Not included. Disability allowance, private pension and health insurance deductions, part-time pay, a second employer, special exemptions and the employer's cost.

In January 2026 a ₺60,000 gross salary pays ₺47,356.63 net: ₺8,400 SGK, ₺600 unemployment insurance, ₺3,438.67 income tax after the minimum wage exemption and ₺204.70 stamp duty. Net pay falls from April as the running tax base passes ₺190,000.
For wage income in 2026 the Income Tax Law sets 15% up to ₺190,000, 20% up to ₺400,000, 27% up to ₺1,500,000, 35% up to ₺5,300,000 and 40% above. The amounts apply to the yearly base, which builds up month by month.
Turkish payroll taxes each month on a running total of the year's tax base. Once that total passes ₺190,000 the extra pay is taxed at 20% instead of 15%, and past ₺400,000 at 27%, so the same gross brings less net pay in autumn.
Article 23/18 of the Income Tax Law exempts the part of every wage equal to the minimum wage less premiums, ₺28,075.50 in 2026, from income tax. Stamp duty is not charged on the first ₺33,030. A worker on the minimum wage pays neither tax and takes home ₺28,075.50.
Employees pay 14% of gross to SGK, 9% for pension and 5% for health insurance, plus 1% unemployment insurance. Premiums stop at the 2026 ceiling of ₺297,270 a month, nine times the minimum wage, so the most deducted is ₺44,590.50 a month.
Disability allowance, private pension and health insurance deductions, pay below the full-time minimum wage, a second employer and special exemptions such as research and development are not modelled. The employer's premiums and total cost are not shown either.
