Italy Gross to Net Salary Calculator
Worked example (the default inputs above): €40,000 gross → INPS 9.19% = €3,676 → taxable €36,324 → IRPEF €9,353 → annual net €26,971 → €2,248 a month over 12 months (€1,927 over 14 months).
Key fact: Italy taxes in three IRPEF bands: 23% up to €28,000, 35% to €50,000 and 43% above — but only the part of your income inside each band is taxed at that band's rate.
What this calculator does
This calculator estimates take-home pay for an employee in Italy. It deducts employee INPS social contributions (9.19%) from gross pay, then applies the progressive IRPEF income-tax bands to what is left, and divides the result by the number of monthly payments your contract uses.

The formula
INPS = gross × 9.19%. Taxable income = gross − INPS. IRPEF = 23% on the first €28,000 of taxable income, 35% on the part between €28,001 and €50,000, and 43% on the part above €50,000. Net = gross − INPS − IRPEF. Example: €40,000 gross → INPS €3,676 → taxable €36,324 → IRPEF €6,440 + 35% × €8,324 = €9,353 → net €26,971 a year.

Worked example with real numbers
A developer in Milan is offered €40,000 gross, paid over 12 months. INPS at 9.19% takes €3,676, leaving €36,324 taxable. IRPEF charges 23% on the first €28,000 (€6,440) and 35% on the remaining €8,324 (€2,913), for €9,353 of income tax. Net pay is €40,000 − €3,676 − €9,353 = €26,971 a year, or €2,248 a month. If the same salary were paid over 14 months, each payment would be €1,927 — same annual total, smaller monthly cheques. At €60,000 gross, the same maths gives about €38,417 net a year (€3,201 a month over 12 months), because more income falls in the 35% and 43% bands.

Sources and disclaimer
Rates used: 2025 IRPEF bands — 23% to €28,000, 35% from €28,001 to €50,000, 43% above €50,000 — and an employee INPS rate of 9.19%. Sources for the bands and the INPS range include the Italian tax-bracket summaries published by LexisNexis/Tolley and payroll guides summarising Agenzia delle Entrate rules. IMPORTANT LIMITS: this is an estimate, not a payslip. It excludes regional surtax (roughly 1.2–3.3%) and municipal surtax (0–0.9%), employment-income deductions and tax credits, which all move the real result — your actual net will usually be a little lower than this estimate. Rates can change each January; verify the current bands with Agenzia delle Entrate or a payroll adviser before relying on the figure.
