Since 1 January 2023 the TRAIN law (RA 10963) taxes compensation with the lower second-stage table: the first ₱250,000 a year is tax-free and each bracket's rate applies only to the income inside it.

Your mandatory SSS, PhilHealth and Pag-IBIG contributions are taken off before tax. SSS is 15% of your monthly salary credit (5% from you, 10% from your employer) since January 2025; PhilHealth is 5% of basic salary shared equally; Pag-IBIG is 2% of up to ₱10,000.

The 13th-month pay and other benefits are tax-free up to ₱90,000 a year; only the excess is taxed. Your employer withholds the tax monthly and settles the exact amount in the year-end adjustment.

Withholding tax computation example

On a basic salary of 30,000 a month, your contributions are 2,450 a month and the withholding tax is 1,007.5 a month.

That leaves a take-home pay of 26,542.5 a month.

Good to know

  • If you earn ₱20,833 or less a month after contributions, you pay no income tax.
  • Your 13th-month pay is tax-free up to ₱90,000 together with other bonuses.
  • Check your payslip: SSS stops rising once your pay reaches ₱34,750 a month.

Philippine income tax — common questions

How much tax do I pay on a ₱30,000 salary?

After SSS (₱1,500), PhilHealth (₱750) and Pag-IBIG (₱200), your taxable pay is ₱27,550 a month or ₱330,600 a year. Tax = 15% of (₱330,600 − ₱250,000) = ₱12,090 a year, about ₱1,007.50 a month.

Is the 13th-month pay taxable?

Only above ₱90,000. The 13th-month pay and other benefits such as Christmas bonuses are tax-free up to ₱90,000 a year in total; anything above that is added to your taxable income.

How much is the SSS contribution in 2026?

15% of your monthly salary credit — 5% from you and 10% from your employer. The salary credit runs from ₱5,000 to ₱35,000, so the employee share is ₱250 to ₱1,750 a month.

How much is PhilHealth for employees in 2026?

5% of your monthly basic salary, split equally with your employer, using a ₱10,000 floor and ₱100,000 ceiling. Your share is 2.5% — ₱250 to ₱2,500 a month.
