Multi-country take-home pay

Estimate the pay left after the taxes and deductions modelled for Switzerland or Canada.

How to use this calculator
  1. Pick the country of the offer / current residence.
  2. Enter yearly salary before deductions in the country's currency: CHF or CAD.
  3. Choose the canton or province. It determines the regional tax added to the federal estimate.
  4. Read the separate deductions to see why take-home pay differs from salary. The Swiss estimate also includes a workplace pension deduction.
  5. Switch countries to compare their calculations. Re-enter the salary in the new country's currency, because the amount is not converted automatically.

How this is worked out

Your marginal tax rate

The estimated income tax on your next CHF of salary, combining federal and regional tax. This excludes social and payroll contributions and is not the rate on your whole salary.

Top band (reference)

The highest 2026 federal and regional tax rates combined, as applied here, including any surtax or abatement. This is a reference figure, not the rate applied to all of your salary.

What this assumes

  • The tax bands use the published 2026 tables except where an estimate is labelled below. The result covers that tax year only.
  • Assumes one person filing alone, with no dependants. Joint filing and family credits are not modelled, so your tax may differ.
  • Federal tax uses the ESTV 2026 single tariff, applied to salary after social contributions and Pillar 2. The canton figure is a flat effective blend, not your commune's schedule, and personal deductions are not modelled.
Where these numbers come from
  • Federal bracket table — ESTV Form 58c 2026 (federal direct tax, single; flat 11.5% above 793,900) · 2026
  • AHV/IV/EO rate (employee) — AHV/IV/EO Merkblatt 2.01 — employee half of 10.6% (2026, unchanged) · 2026
  • ALV rate (employee) — ALV — employee half of 2.2% up to CHF 148,200 (Merkblatt 2.01, 2026) · 2026
  • ALV salary ceiling — ALV insured-salary ceiling, CHF (Merkblatt 2.01, 2026; the >148,200 solidarity levy was abolished in 2023) · 2026
  • Pillar 2 (BVG) employee share uses our estimate rather than a published rate. Basis: 7% of gross as a mid-career proxy for the BVG employee share (statutory: 3.5–9% of the coordinated salary by age band, employer matching at least). Not a statutory rate, and not applied to a coordinated salary..
  • Canton tax (Zurich) uses our estimate rather than a published rate. Basis: The estimate applies one tax percentage to your income for the canton. Actual cantonal and local taxes use a more detailed calculation, so the estimate can differ from your tax bill. This percentage is an app assumption, not an official tax rate..

This uses the published 2026 national tax schedules with simplified regional calculations. Personal deductions, family circumstances and local rules can change take-home pay. It is an estimate for comparison, not personal tax advice.
