How salaire net in Luxembourg is calculated
Luxembourg payroll deducts pension (8%), health (3.05%) and dependency (1.4%) contributions from gross, about 12.45% together.
Income tax then applies on a finely-graduated progressive scale that depends on tax class (derived from marital status and children), plus a 7% employment-fund surcharge. This simplified model uses class 1. Estimate, not tax advice.
