Ho much tax do I have to pay?

Posted 25 January 2013

I work as a facilitator I pay tax but not sure how much and how they calculate it. How much tax do I have to pay p/m if I earn R13 000?

If you earn R13 000 per month then you will pay PAYE of:

Tax you will pay / PAYE (Pay As You Earn) for your age group and income bracket: R 1386.66 (as per PAYE tables provided by SARS)
Take home pay = Gross salary - PAYE - UIF
UIF / Unemployment Insurance Fund is levied at 1% of your taxable income, at most R148.72/month
Take home pay = R 13000 - R 1386.66 - R 130
Take home pay: R 11483.34 :)
