Frequently Asked Questions
How is wage tax calculated in Suriname?
From the gross wage the employee's pension premium is deducted and then a standard deduction of 4% (max SRD 400). The first SRD 9,000 a month is tax-free. Above that, 8%, 18% and 28% apply to 3 bands of SRD 3,500 and 38% to the rest.
What is AOV?
The state old-age pension premium: 4% of the net wage for tax (zuiver loon), paid by employees under 60 and withheld with wage tax.
What does an employer pay on top of the gross wage?
At least half of the APF pension premium, 0.5% FVO (parental leave fund) and at least half of the basic health insurance premium.
Is this the same as tax.sr or Celery?
We tested the same salaries in both: the wage tax, AOV, pension, FVO and net pay match to the cent. The only difference can be the pension rate the tool assumes; you can set it under More options.
