Method and limitations
The calculator adds no new tax formula. It repeatedly tests gross salaries in the Luxembourg 2026 gross-to-net engine until it finds the smallest cent that reaches the requested net.
The target can represent either a regular salary month or annual net divided by 12. For 13 or 14 payments, additional payments are assumed to equal the estimated monthly gross.
