How it works

1

In the Monthly tab, enter your gross salary and dependents to see 2026 withholding and how much the new exemption saves you.

2

In the Annual return tab, enter income, medical and education expenses, PGBL contributions and tax withheld.

3

Compare itemized and simplified returns to see your estimated refund or tax due. For incomes above R$ 600k, use the High income tab.

What changed in Brazilian income tax in 2026

Law 15,270/2025 introduced a tax reduction that effectively exempts people earning up to R$ 5,000 per month. Between R$ 5,000.01 and R$ 7,350.00 the reduction is partial and phases out as income rises. Above R$ 7,350 per month nothing changes.

The progressive table itself (exempt up to R$ 2,428.80, rates from 7.5% to 27.5%) is unchanged: tax is computed from the table and the reduction is subtracted afterwards. It applies to salaries paid since January 2026, to the 13th salary and to the 2027 annual return.

Itemized vs simplified return

The simplified return applies a flat 20% discount on taxable income, capped at R$ 17,640.00. The itemized return deducts actual expenses: INSS, dependents (R$ 2,275.08 each), uncapped medical costs, education up to R$ 3,561.50 per person, PGBL up to 12% of income and court-ordered alimony. The calculator runs both and highlights the better one.
