How we compute your Taiwan salary rank
We use the DGBAS 2024 distribution of annual total earnings to pinpoint where your salary lands. Your entered gross salary is ranked within your age band, with an all-ages rank shown too. The median annual total earnings are NT$546,000 and the mean is NT$732,000; the top 10% earn at least NT$1,336,000, and earnings peak at ages 40-49. Take-home pay deducts income tax (綜合所得稅), labor insurance (勞保), and health insurance (健保); deductions are low, so net is about 95% of gross.

Sources and reliability
All data is sourced from official Taiwan bodies: DGBAS (Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics) 2024 earnings survey (annual total earnings distribution, median, mean and top decile by age), plus income tax (綜合所得稅), labor insurance (勞保) and health insurance (健保) rules. No proprietary adjustments — only official statistics. Percentiles are on annual total earnings, with cohorts approximated using DGBAS age bands (earnings peak at 40-49). Deductions are relatively low, so take-home is about 95% of gross.
