Vacation Pay: Salary × Percentage Estimate

Multiply monthly salary by a vacation pay percentage to show an estimated payout. Default 12% matches a common Swedish reference rate in many employments, but your contract or collective agreement may differ. Simplified planning only; not Semesterlagen payroll math on earned wages over the earning year.

How to use

Enter Monthly Salary and Vacation Pay (%). Estimated vacation pay = salary × percentage ÷ 100. Use gross monthly pay unless you know otherwise. Hourly workers should convert to an average monthly gross first.

Example

35,000 per month at 12% gives 4,200 estimated vacation pay before tax. At 40,000 and 12%, the estimate is 4,800. Real Swedish payroll may use sammalöneregeln or procentregeln on earned pay during the qualification year.

Tips

Semesterersättning is normally taxable like wages. This page does not subtract tax. Confirm percent with HR, union avtal, or Semesterlagen. For salary raises or annual totals, use Calctivo salary increase or annual salary tools.
