How sueldo neto in Argentina is calculated

Argentine payroll deducts 17% employee contributions (SIPA pension 11%, PAMI 3%, obra social 3%) from gross.

Ganancias (income tax) then applies to the amount after contributions and personal deductions. For 2026 the minimo no imponible is 5,585,737 ARS a year and the special deduction for employees 26,811,537, about 2,699,773 a month between them, so most salaries fall below the tax entirely. The thresholds are indexed to wage inflation and change frequently, so re-verify quarterly. Estimate, not tax advice.

Frequently asked questions

What are the contributions on an Argentine salary?

17% together — SIPA pension 11%, PAMI 3% and obra social 3% — off gross.

Why do the tax thresholds change so often?

They are indexed to wage inflation (RIPTE) and updated frequently, so figures need re-checking each quarter.

Does the employee pay Ganancias?

Yes, but only above the indexed minimum — for 2026 the combined deductions are about 2.7 million ARS a month, so a 1.5 million salary pays none.
