How Côte d'Ivoire PAYE Tax Is Calculated 2025/26

Côte d'Ivoire's payroll income tax, the Impôt sur les Traitements et Salaires (ITS), is administered by the Direction Générale des Impôts (DGI) and calculated on a monthly basis. The employee's gross monthly salary is first reduced by the employee CNPS retirement contribution of 6.3%, then the official impôt brut bands are applied before subtracting the Réduction d'Impôt pour Charges de Famille (RICF).

Social security is managed by the Caisse Nationale de Prévoyance Sociale (CNPS). Employees contribute 6.3% of gross salary for retirement, and that amount is deducted before the ITS bands are applied. Employer-side social costs are not a single flat statutory rate because the accident-at-work component varies by sector from 2% to 5%.

The official monthly impôt brut bands start with the first XOF 75,000 exempt and then rise through 16%, 21%, 24%, 28% and 32%. The final ITS payable can be reduced materially by the RICF schedule, which depends on the taxpayer's number of family parts.

Côte d'Ivoire uses the XOF (West African CFA franc), fixed to the euro at 655.957. This calculator shows a baseline employer social-cost estimate using 7.7% retirement, 5% family benefits, 0.75% maternity and a default 2% accident-at-work rate.
