AGT progressive tax (0%–25%), INSS social security (3% employee + 8% employer). Monthly computation per AGT bands.
INSS employee contribution (3%) is fully deductible from taxable income before PAYE is calculated. Employer INSS (8%) is an additional cost shown in employer chart.
Nine monthly bands: 0% on AOA 0–100,000; 10%–15% on AOA 100,001–200,000; 20%–21.5% on AOA 200,001–500,000; 22.5%–23.5% on AOA 500,001–1,500,000; 24.5%–25% on AOA 1,500,001–2,000,000+. Applied monthly to taxable income (after INSS deduction).
Yes — the employee's mandatory 3% INSS contribution is fully deductible from gross pay before calculating PAYE. This reduces your taxable income and therefore your PAYE tax. The employer's matching 8% contribution is a separate employer cost, not deducted from your pay.
The Instituto Nacional de Segurança Social (INSS) provides social security coverage for employees, including pension, disability, and survivor benefits. Total contribution is 11% (employee 3% + employer 8%).
Effective tax rate = (Total PAYE tax / Gross salary) × 100%. This shows the average percentage of gross salary paid in income tax. The marginal rate (on the next AOA earned) may be higher due to progressive tax bands.
Marginal rate is the tax rate on your next AOA of income (the highest band you're in). Effective rate is your total tax divided by total income. Because of progressive bands, your marginal rate is typically higher than your effective rate.
Beyond INSS, there may be union dues, pension scheme contributions, and other statutory deductions depending on employer policy. Always consult your employer payroll department or a qualified Angolan tax professional for comprehensive deduction information.
