1. How accurate is this tax calculator?
This calculator provides estimates using sample tax brackets. Actual tax amounts may vary based on your location, tax laws, and personal circumstances. Always consult a tax professional for precise calculations.

The current version uses predefined rates. For customized calculations, you'd need to modify the JavaScript code with your specific tax bracket percentages and income ranges.
3. Does it include bonuses or overtime pay?
This basic calculator focuses on regular monthly salary. Additional income sources require separate calculations due to different tax treatment in many countries.
4. How to calculate self-employment taxes?
Self-employment taxes typically include additional contributions. This calculator is designed for employed individuals. Freelancers should use specialized calculators accounting for business expenses and SE tax.
5. Why are my actual deductions different?
Differences may occur due to local tax laws, health insurance contributions, retirement plans, or other payroll deductions not accounted for in this basic calculation.
6. How often should I recalculate?
Recalculate whenever your salary changes, tax laws update, or you experience life events affecting tax status (marriage, dependents, etc.).
7. Are tax credits considered?
This version doesn't include tax credits. To account for credits (child care, education, etc.), you'd need to subtract them from calculated tax amounts manually.

9. Handling multiple jobs?
For multiple income sources, calculate each separately considering cumulative tax brackets. This may require professional tax advice for accuracy.
10. What's considered taxable income?
Taxable income typically includes salary, bonuses, and benefits. Some allowances may be exempt. Consult your national tax authority for specific inclusions/exclusions.
