Social Security calculator

para autónomos en España 🇪🇸

In Spain, self-employed workers must pay mandatory social security contributions.

Find out here how much you need to pay, and whether paying more than the minimum makes sense for you.

Insert here all the income from your autónomo activity (before taxes) in the calendar year you want to do the calculation for.

If you have a regular job and are working as an autónomo alongside (pluriactividad), this tool may not provide accurate results for you.

All your yearly tax-deductible business expenses EXCEPT:

  • - any taxes
  • - social security payments

Remember to include only expenses from your autónomo business, not personal deductions you can apply to your income tax like private health insurance.

Autónomo payments rise yearly, set a couple of years in advance based on a complex negotiation process between state institutions and autónomo lobbying groups.

This is why it is important to choose the correct year for the calculation.

Choose a discount scheme if you know you are eligible for it.

If you're just starting as autónomo for the first time, you're most likely eligible for the first-year 80 Euro flat rate. You can use this tool to calculate your regular contribution after that discount runs out.

These may not be all available discount schemes - if you know of one that you would like to see included, drop me a line!

Results are merely orientative and provided without any warranty. Many special cases are not covered. All calculations have been tested to the best of the author's knowledge, but no guarantee is given in regards to accuracy. Note that there are conditions around how and when you can receive sick pay, paternity pay, and pensions. For definite information, talk to a professional.
