Type a salary and see the income tax for the year and for each month, with every exemption and bracket shown, as the Income Tax Law counts it.
Count your income tax
For a person resident in Jordan with income from a job.
Figures as of 2026.
Source: Income Tax Law No. 34 of 2014 and its amendments (Law No. 38 of 2018), Articles 9 and 11, as published by the Income and Sales Tax Department.
The tax is counted on the salary before social security: Article 9 of the law, which lists what a resident person takes off before tax, does not name the employee's social security share.

How it is counted
First the exemptions come off the year's income: 9,000 dinars for you, 9,000 more if you support dependants, however many they are, and up to 1,000 for you, 1,000 for your spouse and 1,000 for each child (3,000 at most for children) against bills for medical care, education, rent or housing-loan interest. One family takes 23,000 dinars at most.
What is left, rounded down to the dinar, is taxed in brackets: 5% on the first 5,000 dinars, 10% on the next 5,000, 15% on the next 5,000, 20% on the next 5,000, and 25% on what follows up to one million.
A taxable income above 200,000 dinars a year also pays a national contribution of 1% on the part above 200,000. The tax due is rounded down to the dinar; each month is one twelfth of the year's tax.

Questions and answers
How is income tax on a salary counted in Jordan?
The year's income less the exemptions is taxed in brackets: 5% on the first 5,000 dinars, then 10%, 15% and 20% on each next 5,000, and 25% on what follows up to one million dinars.
Up to what salary is there no income tax?
Up to 9,000 dinars a year for a person alone, and 18,000 dinars a year with dependants, before any exemption against bills.
Who pays the national contribution?
A person whose taxable income is above 200,000 dinars a year: 1% on the part above 200,000.
Is social security taken off before the tax is counted?
This tool counts the tax on the salary before social security, because Article 9 of the law, which lists what is taken off before tax, does not name the employee's social security share.
