Nóminas y normativas fiscales en Estonia
En Estonia, tanto empleadores como empleados contribuyen al sistema de seguridad social del país mediante impuestos y deducciones sobre la nómina.
Contribuciones a la nómina de la entidad empleadora en Estonia
- Social tax: Employers are liable for a social tax at a flat rate of 33% of an employee’s gross salary. This tax is not capped. The funds are allocated to state pension insurance (20%) and health insurance (13%). This is paid by the employer on top of the employee’s salary.
- Unemployment insurance contribution: Employers contribute 0.8% of the employee’s gross salary to the unemployment insurance fund.
Deducciones por nómina de empleados en Estonia
- Unemployment insurance contribution: Employees contribute 1.6% of their gross salary to the unemployment insurance fund.
- Funded pension (II Pillar): For employees born after 1983, a contribution of 2% of gross salary to a mandatory funded pension scheme is required. The state adds 4% from the employer-paid social tax to this contribution. Employees born before 1983 may join voluntarily.
Impuesto sobre los ingresos de Estonia
Estonia tiene un tipo fijo del impuesto sobre los ingresos de las personas personales (PIT) del 22%, que es retenido por la entidad empleadora. Las personas tienen derecho a una deducción básica libre de impuestos de700 € al mes (8€400 anual). A diferencia de años anteriores, esta prestaciones es ahora universal; Ya no disminuye a medida que aumentan los ingresos y permanece disponible para todas las personas, independientemente de sus ingresos totales. Este cambio, efectivo desde el 1de enero de 2026, abolió el anterior sistema de 'joroba fiscal'.

Para garantizar el cumplimiento, las empresas deben seguir procedimientos específicos de administración de nóminas.
