An employee on €60,000
The same single employee, further up the scale.
Checked on 25 September 2026
The case
An employee paid €60,000 a year in twelve monthly salaries by one employer. Tax resident and domiciled in Cyprus, no other income, no children, and nothing claimed beyond the social insurance and GESY taken from the pay.
What to notice
- Social insurance of €5,280 comes off before income tax, so the taxable income is €53,130, not €60,000. Leave it out and the tax is worked out on too high a figure.
- All four bands moved in 2026. Income tax falls from €8,824 to €7,839 — €985 a year.
