Cyprus salary calculator
Turn a gross salary into take-home pay, or work backwards from a net target. Income tax, Social Insurance and GHS are all broken out, on 2026 rates.
Estimates on 2026 Cyprus rates: income tax bands, Social Insurance 8.8% and GHS 2.65%, with the standard caps. Social Insurance and GHS are treated as deductible. For guidance only, not tax advice, and rates are reviewed each year.
Where a €30,000 salary goes
How Cyprus deductions work
Three things come out of a Cyprus gross salary before take-home. Social Insurance at 8.8% of gross, capped at an insurable ceiling, funds the state social fund. The General Healthcare System contribution (GeSY) is 2.65% of gross, with its own higher cap. Income tax is then worked out on what is left after those two, because both are deductible. Income tax itself is banded, with the first slice tax-free, so the effective rate is always lower than the top band you reach.
Social Insurance only applies up to an annual insurable ceiling, currently 68,904 euro, so very high salaries pay a flat amount above that. GeSY is capped at 180,000 euro of income. Above each cap the contribution stops rising, which is why take-home as a percentage improves at higher salaries.
