Egypt income tax is calculated on annual taxable income after deducting social insurance (11% of salary, capped at EGP 16,700/month) and the personal exemption (EGP 20,000/year). Tax brackets range from 0% on income up to EGP 40,000 to 27.5% on income above EGP 1,200,000.

Under Law 148 of 2019, employees pay 11% of their insurable salary as social insurance. The monthly insurable salary is capped at EGP 16,700, making the maximum employee deduction EGP 1,837 per month. The employer pays an additional 18.75%.

Net salary = Gross − Social Insurance (11%, max EGP 1,837) − Income Tax − Law 4.3 deduction (0.05% of gross). Use the free calculator on this page to compute the exact amount instantly.

Egypt 2026 income tax brackets (annual taxable income): 0% up to EGP 40,000 · 10% on EGP 40,001–55,000 · 15% on EGP 55,001–70,000 · 20% on EGP 70,001–200,000 · 22.5% on EGP 200,001–400,000 · 25% on EGP 400,001–1,200,000 · 27.5% above EGP 1,200,000.

Law 4.3 is a compulsory monthly deduction of 0.05% of the employee's gross salary applied for social solidarity. For example, a salary of EGP 15,000 incurs a Law 4.3 deduction of EGP 7.50 per month.

The total cost to the employer (CTC) equals the gross salary plus the employer's social insurance contribution of 18.75% of the insurable salary (capped at EGP 16,700/month). For example, an employee on EGP 10,000 gross costs the employer EGP 11,875 per month.
