Calculations use 2026 German tax rates and Tax Class I (single, no dependents) — married couples using joint assessment (Tax Classes III/IV/V) will see different figures and aren't modeled here. Taxable income is approximated as gross salary minus the standard employee and special-expenses lump-sum deductions; it does not model the Vorsorgepauschale used in real payroll withholding, so actual monthly Lohnsteuer may run slightly lower than this annual estimate. For precise figures, consult a Steuerberater or the official BMF calculator.
