Estimate under the CLT with the 2026 tables. The statement is due within 10 days of the end of the contract; the FGTS deposit and fine go to the FGTS account of the employee. Without the balance, the FGTS is estimated from the salary. Collective agreements may change the amounts. Not a substitute for an accountant.

About this tool

Type the salary, the hiring date, the last day and the reason to see what the end of a CLT contract costs the company. The calculator builds the termination statement (salary balance, notice paid in lieu with Lei 12.506, proportional 13th and vacation plus one third) and adds what the employer pays beyond it: the FGTS deposit of the termination (8% of the salary balance, the notice in lieu and the 13th, Súmula 305 TST), the FGTS fine (40% without cause, 20% by mutual agreement) and the employer INSS on the salary balance and the 13th, which depends on the tax regime. It also shows what the employee takes home, so both sides match. 2026 tables; everything is worked out in your browser.

How to use it

  1. 1 Type the gross salary and the dates of the contract.
  2. 2 Choose the reason and whether the notice is worked or paid in lieu.
  3. 3 Choose the company tax regime and, if you know it, type the FGTS balance of the employee.
  4. 4 Read the total the company pays, the FGTS part and the cost sheet line by line.

Frequently asked questions

Are the values I type saved or sent anywhere?

No. Everything is worked out in your browser. Nothing goes to a server, nothing is saved and nothing stays in the page address; only the link you choose to copy carries the values.

Does the company still pay the extra 10% on the FGTS fine?

No. The extra contribution of LC 110/2001 ended on 1 January 2020 (Lei 13.932/2019). Today the company pays the 40% fine (20% in a mutual agreement) into the employee's FGTS account.

Why does the notice paid in lieu have FGTS but no INSS?

The notice paid in lieu is an indemnity, so it pays no INSS, but the TST (Súmula 305) holds that FGTS is due on it. The calculator follows both rules.
