How we got this number

Monthly IRRF still uses the 0%–27.5% table. What changed in 2026 is the Law 15.270/2025 reducer that zeroes tax up to R$5,000 and tapers to R$7,350. We also pick the better of legal deductions and the R$607.20 simplified discount.

INSS is deducted from the IRRF base: check it in the INSS calculator. For the full result, use the net salary calculator and read the 2026 IRRF guide.

Formula and rules

Base = gross − max(INSS + dependents × 189.59 + alimony, 607.20). Table tax minus the 2026 reducer, floored at zero.

Examples

R$5,000, no dependents

Table tax exists, relief covers 100%. IRRF = R$0.

R$6,000

Partial reducer: 978.62 − 0.133145 × 6,000. Tax is lower than the raw table, but not zero.

Frequently asked questions

Is the 13th salary included?

No. The 13th salary has its own withholding. This page estimates ordinary monthly pay.

Does someone earning just over R$5,000 lose the exemption at once?

No. At R$5,001 estimated IRRF is R$0.36, because the relief declines linearly to R$7,350.

When does the R$607.20 simplified deduction apply?

It applies when it is larger than the legal deductions: INSS, R$189.59 per dependent and alimony. On R$5,000 gross, INSS is R$501.51, below R$607.20, so the tax base is R$4,392.80. The two deductions are never added together.
