Good to know

- Income tax uses the year-end settlement (연말정산) rules: earned income deduction, the ₩1.5 million basic deduction, pension and insurance deductions, and the earned income tax credit. Local income tax adds 10% of the income tax.
- Single with no dependents. Credit card, housing, medical, education and other deductions are not included, so most people pay a little less.
- Foreign workers may be able to choose a flat-rate tax option instead of these rates. It is not included here; check it with your employer or a tax adviser.

Will I get money back in the year-end settlement?
Often, yes. Monthly withholding follows a simplified table, and deductions for card spending, housing, medical costs and dependents (not in this calculator) are claimed in January and February, which usually lowers the final tax.
Are token grants included?
No. Tokens or equity received for work are usually taxed as income when you receive them or when they vest, at their value then. Rules differ, so check your own grant with a local tax adviser.
