How take-home pay works in Malta
Your net (take-home) pay in Malta is your gross salary minus income tax and social security (National Insurance) contributions. Income tax is charged on a progressive scale — currently from 0% up to 35% — with more generous tax-free bands for married couples and parents. For most employees, tax and NI are deducted at source under the FSS system, so the figure that lands in your account is already net.
This calculator gives a close estimate from the gross figure you enter. Exact deductions depend on your allowances and category, so treat the result as a guide and confirm specifics with the Commissioner for Tax and Customs or an accountant.
