Work backwards from your take-home goal

Sometimes you know exactly how much you need to take home — for rent, savings, or lifestyle — and want to figure out what gross salary makes that possible. This calculator reverses the math, factoring in income tax and social contributions to find your required gross pay.

When is this useful?

  • Negotiating a salary based on your net needs
  • Comparing contractor vs. employee compensation
  • Setting freelance rates that cover taxes
