How is net salary calculated in Vanuatu?

In Vanuatu, net salary is calculated by subtracting social security contributions (VNPF (Vanuatu National Provident Fund)) and income tax (No personal income tax) from the annual gross salary.

No personal income tax uses a progressive scale. Rates range from 0 % for the lowest incomes to 0 % for the highest. Only the portion of income that falls within each bracket is taxed at that rate, never the full salary.

VNPF (Vanuatu National Provident Fund) contributions amount to approximately 4 % of gross salary, funding the pension, healthcare and other social benefits available to employees in Vanuatu.

This calculator uses official data from Government of Vanuatu for 2026. Results are indicative; for exact calculations or specific situations (personal deductions, special regimes) consult a tax adviser or the country's tax authority.

Vanuatu does not apply personal income tax, being one of the few countries in the world without this levy. Government revenues come mainly from VAT and fees. The employee contributes 4% to the VNPF (pension); the employer adds 4%.
