Salary calculator — your scenario

This page recovers a legacy URL from an older share link. The calculator below is pre-filled from the parameters in your URL (income, frontaliere type, marital status, children, residence distance) and recalculates net salary instantly under both the old (pre-2026) and new bilateral agreements. Drag the inputs or paste a new income to see updated CHF and EUR figures, plus the AVS/AC/LAA/IJM/LPP breakdown and the monthly net comparison between living in Switzerland on a Permit B and commuting from Italy. The full guide to the 2026 frontaliere reform lives on the canonical page linked from the header.

Frequently asked

What is the new 2026 frontaliere agreement? The 2026 Switzerland–Italy bilateral treaty replaces the 1974 cantonal-reversal-only scheme with a 80/20 split: 80% of income tax goes to the canton of employment, 20% to the Italian municipality of residence. New frontalieri hired after 17 July 2023 fall under the new rules; those hired before keep grandfathered terms.

Why do I see two net figures (CHF and EUR)? The calculator converts the Swiss net salary at the current CHF/EUR rate so you can compare like-for-like with Italian payslips. The EUR figure already subtracts the LAMal premium, cross-border health contribution, and an estimated commute cost so the comparison reflects what actually lands in your pocket.

Does the result include the 13th-month salary? Yes — the gross we use already includes the 13th-month pay where the contract provides one, and AVS/AC/UV/KTG/BVG contributions are deducted on the same base. A 14th month is rare in Switzerland and treated as a discretionary bonus, not built into the default scenario.

Can I share the pre-filled scenario? Yes — copy the URL from your browser address bar after adjusting the inputs. The query string encodes every parameter so the recipient lands on the same scenario without retyping it.
