PayCompass

How much would you earn in another EU country? Find out in seconds

🧭 PayCompass — Compare salaries, taxes and cost of living across Europe

⚠️ Independent app, not affiliated with any government or public body. Every figure shows its source, or we clearly tell you when a verified one doesn't exist yet (full list below).

Thinking about working in another EU country? Got an offer in Germany, France or Portugal and not sure if it's really worth it? PayCompass tells you in seconds whether you'd be better or worse off moving — not just the currency change, but real cost of living and taxes too.

💰 SALARY COMPARATOR
Enter your gross annual salary, pick your country and the destination country, and instantly find out:
• Your real net salary after tax
• How much you'd need to earn in the other country to live the same, adjusted for real cost of living (not just the exchange rate)
• The full breakdown: gross, what the government keeps, and what you take home

🏆 RANKINGS FOR ALL 27 EU COUNTRIES
• Highest minimum wage in Europe
• Cheapest (and most expensive) countries to live in
• Average salary by country

📊 REAL DATA, NEVER MADE UP
When a figure is an approximation (for example, a national average where the real tax varies by region), we clearly flag it as "Approximate" — we'd rather be transparent than give you a made-up number that looks precise.

📚 OFFICIAL SOURCES - FULL LIST
Cost of living, all 27 countries: Numbeo (numbeo.com).
Minimum wage, 19 of the 27 countries (the ones with a verified official figure): Eurostat (ec.europa.eu/eurostat). For the remaining 8 countries, the app doesn't show or estimate this figure.
Average salary, 13 of the 27 countries (the ones with a verified official figure): Eurostat (ec.europa.eu/eurostat). For the rest, the app doesn't show or estimate this figure.
Income tax brackets, verified official source: Spain (sede.agenciatributaria.gob.es). For every other country there isn't yet a verified official source, and the app doesn't show or estimate that figure.
For any country or field not listed above, the app marks it as pending verification instead of presenting it as official. Inside the app, every figure also includes a direct link to its specific source.

🌍 AVAILABLE IN 6 LANGUAGES
