How we calculate
EPF is calculated using the Third Schedule: wages up to RM5,000 in RM20 bands and up to RM20,000 in RM100 bands, based on the upper limit of each band and rounded to whole ringgit. Employees under 60 contribute 11%; employers 13% (wages of RM5,000 and below) or 12%. Non-citizen employees: 2% each.
SOCSO, LINDUNG 24 Jam and EIS are taken directly from the official contribution tables, with a wage ceiling of RM6,000. LINDUNG 24 Jam (0.75%, paid by the employee) started on 1 June 2026; local employees who opted out before 31 Aug 2026 do not contribute.
PCB is calculated with LHDN's 2026 computerised formula for a fixed salary throughout the year, without bonuses, zakat or optional reliefs (Form TP1).
Limits
This is an estimate. Overtime, bonuses, certain allowances and TP1 reliefs change the actual deductions. Check your payslip and ask your employer.
