How to Use This Calculator

Use this page as a Hungary salary calculator or bérkalkulátor 2026 for employment salary planning. Enter bruttó bér first, then set employee type, SZJA allowance mode, family allowance details, taxable benefits, deductions, and employer szocho assumptions.

The calculator separates employee nettó bér from munkáltatói bérköltség so job offers, payroll checks, and hiring budgets do not mix take-home pay with employer cost.

Step 1: Enter bruttó bér
Start with monthly or annual gross salary before SZJA, TB járulék, allowances, benefits, and deductions.
Step 2: Choose employee and SZJA allowance settings
Use standard employee, old-age pensioner, under-25 allowance, full PIT-exempt income, first-married allowance, or other declared tax-base allowance when relevant.
Step 3: Add family allowance details
Enter total dependents, beneficiary dependents, sick or disabled dependents, and whether unused family allowance should reduce employee TB.
Step 4: Set employer szocho and payroll bases
Choose standard szocho, a relief mode, no szocho, or a custom employer rate, then add taxable benefits and post-tax deductions.
Step 5: Review nettó bér and employer cost
Compare monthly net salary, annual net salary, SZJA, TB, family contribution relief, employer szocho, and total payroll cost.

How the Hungary Bérkalkulátor Estimate Works

The calculator simulates 12 payroll months. It calculates SZJA base allowances, family allowance, employee TB, family contribution relief, net cash salary, and employer szocho. Annual bonus is modeled in December so the monthly trace shows timing.

Step	Formula	Calculator treatment
Payroll income	Gross cash salary + taxable benefits	Taxable benefits affect payroll bases and employer cost but are not added to cash net pay.
SZJA base	Payroll income - selected tax-base allowances	Under-25, full PIT-exempt, first-married, other allowance, and family allowance reduce the tax base.
SZJA	Taxable SZJA base x 15%	Personal income tax after selected allowances.
Employee TB	Payroll income x 18.5%	Standard employee social security contribution before family contribution relief.
Family contribution relief	Unused family tax-base allowance x 15%, capped by TB due	Only applied when the family contribution relief mode is enabled.
Net salary	Gross cash - SZJA - net employee TB - post-tax deductions	Shown as average monthly nettó bér and annual net salary.
Employer cost	Gross cash + taxable benefits + employer szocho	Standard mode uses 13% employer social contribution tax.

If family allowance is larger than the SZJA base, the unused part can reduce employee TB through family contribution relief when that mode is enabled.

Built for Hungary Salary Search Intent

Hungarian salary searches usually use terms like bérkalkulátor 2026, bruttó bér, nettó bér, SZJA, TB járulék, szocho, családi kedvezmény, családi járulékkedvezmény, and munkáltatói bérköltség. This calculator keeps those terms visible while explaining the estimate in English for employees, recruiters, remote workers, and cross-border hiring teams.

The calculator is for employment salary. It is not a freelancer, individual entrepreneur, KATA, EKHO, dividend, board-member, or cross-border tax calculator.

Hungary Payroll Terms Used in the Calculator

Term	Meaning
Bruttó bér	Gross salary before employee SZJA, TB, and payroll deductions.
Nettó bér	Cash salary paid after modeled employee payroll deductions.
SZJA	Személyi jövedelemadó, the Hungarian personal income tax.
TB járulék	Employee social security contribution, modeled at 18.5% for standard employment.
Szocho	Employer social contribution tax, modeled at 13% unless a relief mode is selected.
Családi kedvezmény	Family tax-base allowance based on total and beneficiary dependent count.

Why Family Allowance and Pensioner Mode Matter

Without allowances, a standard Hungarian employment payslip usually deducts 15% SZJA and 18.5% TB from gross salary. Family allowance reduces the SZJA base first, and unused family relief can reduce employee TB when family contribution relief applies.

Old-age pensioner employment is different because this calculator models no employee TB and no employer szocho for that mode. The result can be much higher than a standard employee case at the same bruttó bér.

Area	Why it matters	Best check
Employment model	The calculator models Hungarian employment salary only.	Use specialist support for entrepreneurs, KATA, EKHO, dividends, board-member fees, or cross-border income.
Tax declarations	Allowances depend on valid employee declarations and may be shared between parents.	Confirm family allowance and other SZJA declarations with payroll before relying on payslip output.
Family allowance	Dependent and beneficiary-dependent counts affect the per-child rate.	Use total dependents for the rate and beneficiary dependents for the number claimed in this payroll.
Employer reliefs	Some employer szocho reliefs depend on employee status, dates, and official eligibility.	Use standard szocho unless payroll has confirmed a relief or exemption.
Benefits and absences	Sick pay, unpaid leave, vacation pay, taxable benefits, and bonuses can change monthly payroll timing.	Compare this estimate with employer payroll records for exact payslips.
