Severance Tax & Net Payout DE
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
2026 update: severance tax with 1/5 rule, termination agreements and unemployment-block waiting periods. Premium adds PDF report.
AbfindungsRechner 2026 helps English-speaking users estimate German severance outcomes before a negotiation, a termination agreement (Aufhebungsvertrag), a tax appointment or a conversation with the German employment agency (Agentur für Arbeit).
The app focuses on the German severance, tax and social-security context:
• estimate a typical severance from salary and years of service, using the standard 0.5 monthly gross per year reference from German labour-court practice (BAG)
• compare gross severance with estimated net severance
• model the German one-fifth rule (Fünftelregelung) under Section 34 (1) EStG with the calculation steps shown
• break down a termination-agreement total from remaining salary, vacation compensation, overtime and severance
• review ALG I, blocking-period (Sperrzeit, §159 SGB III) and suspension-period (Ruhezeit, §158 SGB III) risk indicators
• compare payout-timing scenarios across two tax years (December vs. January)
• keep calculation history on device
• export structured PDF reports with the Fünftelregelung steps for consultation and personal documentation
Who is it for?
• employees who just received notice or a separation offer
• works-council members supporting colleagues
• international professionals on a German contract reviewing an Aufhebungsvertrag
• anyone preparing a meeting with a German tax advisor or labour lawyer
Why this app?
German severance can look simple as a gross number but become much more complex once income tax, church tax, solidarity surcharge, payout timing, remaining salary, vacation compensation and possible ALG I consequences come in. This calculator shows the main variables side by side so you can prepare sharper questions before signing or seeking advice.
New for 2026
Updated 2026 income-tax brackets, basic allowance and solidarity-surcharge thresholds.
Premium unlock
Core calculators are free. Premium is a single one-time purchase that unlocks the social-insurance and optimization calculators, the unlimited scenario archive, multi-scenario comparison, and PDF reports with letterhead. No subscription. Existing Premium purchases keep full access.
Important
This app provides estimates and calculation aids based on publicly available German tax and social-security sources (EStG, SGB III, BMF circulars). It is not tax advice, legal advice, payroll advice or an official Agentur für Arbeit decision.
