Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between gross and net salary?
Gross salary is the total salary before legal deductions such as SSI premium, income tax and stamp tax. Net salary is the amount you receive after all deductions.
How is SSI premium calculated?
Employee SSI premium is 14% of gross salary, unemployment insurance is 1%. Total employee deduction is 15%. For salaries above the SSI ceiling, the ceiling amount is used as the base.
What is the minimum wage tax exemption?
Income up to the minimum wage is exempt from income tax and stamp tax. This exemption applies to all employees and increases net salary.
Why do tax brackets matter?
Income tax in Turkey is calculated cumulatively. As cumulative income increases throughout the year, higher tax brackets may apply and net salary may decrease.
What is employer cost?
The employer pays SSI employer share (15.5%-20.5%) and employer unemployment insurance (2%) on top of gross salary. Total employer cost is therefore higher than gross salary.
