How Israeli income tax is calculated in 2025

Israeli income tax uses a progressive bracket system with 7 rates ranging from 10% to 50%. Only the income falling within each bracket is taxed at that bracket’s rate. After computing the gross tax, resident credit points are subtracted directly from the tax owed. For a standard single resident, 2.25 credit points worth 6,345 ILS per year reduce the final Mas Hachnasa payable. Separately, Bituach Leumi and Mas Briut are calculated on a two-tier basis with a threshold at roughly 90,264 ILS and a ceiling at 540,900 ILS annually. A 52% deduction for Bituach Leumi contributions reduces the taxable income base for income tax purposes, per Section 47A of the Income Tax Ordinance.

Worked example: 200,000 ILS annual salary

For a gross salary of 200,000 ILS, the Bituach Leumi contribution is approximately 7,784 ILS (0.4% on the first 90,264 ILS plus 7% on the remaining 109,736 ILS). Mas Briut (health tax) works out to approximately 8,283 ILS (3.1% below threshold, 5% above). The 52% deductible portion of Bituach Leumi is about 4,048 ILS, bringing the taxable income for Mas Hachnasa down to roughly 195,952 ILS. The gross income tax on that amount is approximately 27,520 ILS. After subtracting the 6,345 ILS resident credit, the final Mas Hachnasa is about 21,175 ILS. Net annual pay is approximately 162,758 ILS, or about 13,563 ILS per month.

What is included and what is not

This calculator covers the three main deductions for a salaried Israeli resident employee: income tax (Mas Hachnasa) with the 2.25-point resident credit, Bituach Leumi (National Insurance at 0.4%/7%), and Mas Briut (health tax at 3.1%/5%). It does not include additional credit points for women, children, or new immigrants. It does not model employer-side contributions (Bituach Leumi employer share, pension, severance). It does not account for benefits in kind, study fund (Keren Hishtalmut) contributions, or any other deductible expenses. For a binding figure, consult your payslip or a licensed Israeli tax adviser.

The social insurance ceiling and threshold explained

Bituach Leumi and Mas Briut both use a two-tier rate structure. Below the annual threshold of 90,264 ILS (set at 60% of the average wage), the rates are low: 0.4% for NII and 3.1% for health tax. Above the threshold up to the ceiling of 540,900 ILS, the rates rise to 7% for NII and 5% for health tax. Income above 540,900 ILS is completely exempt from both contributions. This means very high earners pay a lower effective social contribution rate than middle-income earners, because the ceiling limits their total exposure. This calculator applies the threshold and ceiling correctly so that the social insurance figures are accurate across all salary levels.

Frequently asked questions

What is the income tax rate for a salary of 200,000 ILS in Israel in 2025?
For an annual gross salary of 200,000 ILS, a resident employee pays income tax (Mas Hachnasa) across several brackets. The first 84,480 ILS is taxed at 10%, the portion from 84,480 to 120,720 ILS is taxed at 14%, and the portion from 120,720 to 193,800 ILS is taxed at 20%. The remaining slice from 193,800 to 200,000 ILS falls into the 31% bracket. After summing the gross tax across all these brackets, the resident credit (2.25 credit points, worth 6,345 ILS in 2025) is subtracted, reducing the final income tax payable. In addition, Bituach Leumi (National Insurance) and health tax (Mas Briut) are deducted separately based on a tiered structure with a threshold at 90,264 ILS and a ceiling at 540,900 ILS annually. The combined effective income tax rate for 200,000 ILS is roughly 13 to 14 percent of gross.
How does the Israeli income tax bracket system work in 2025?
Israel uses a progressive income tax system with 7 statutory brackets for the 2025 tax year. Each bracket applies only to the income that falls within that band, not to the entire salary. The rates are: 10% on the first 84,480 ILS, 14% from 84,480 to 120,720 ILS, 20% from 120,720 to 193,800 ILS, 31% from 193,800 to 269,280 ILS, 35% from 269,280 to 560,280 ILS, 47% from 560,280 to 721,560 ILS, and 50% on all income above 721,560 ILS. The tax calculated from these brackets is the gross income tax (Mas Hachnasa Galmudi). From this amount, resident tax credit points (Nequdot Zikui) are subtracted to arrive at the final income tax payable. A standard resident employee receives 2.25 credit points, each worth 235 ILS per month in 2025, for a total annual credit of 6,345 ILS. This credit directly reduces the tax owed, not just the taxable income.
What is Bituach Leumi and how much do employees pay in Israel?
Bituach Leumi (Bituah Leumi) is the Israeli National Insurance Institute, equivalent to a social security authority. Employee contributions are split into two tiers based on an annual income threshold of 90,264 ILS and capped at 540,900 ILS annually (2025 figures). Below the threshold, employees pay 0.4% of their income as the National Insurance contribution. Above the threshold and up to the ceiling, the rate rises to 7%. A separate health tax (Mas Briut) is collected by the tax authority on the same income basis: 3.1% below the threshold and 5% above it, up to the same ceiling. Together these are referred to as social insurance contributions. Importantly, 52% of the Bituach Leumi contribution is deductible for income tax purposes under Section 47A of the Income Tax Ordinance, which slightly reduces the taxable base for Mas Hachnasa. Income above the ceiling (540,900 ILS) is not subject to Bituach Leumi or health tax at all.
What are tax credit points (nequdot zikui) and how do they reduce my Israeli income tax?
Tax credit points (Nequdot Zikui, singular: Nequdat Zikui) are a core feature of the Israeli income tax system. Each credit point is worth a fixed monthly amount set by the Tax Authority, which in 2025 is 235 ILS per month, totaling 2,820 ILS per year per point. Credit points are subtracted directly from the calculated income tax, making them more valuable than a deduction from taxable income. Every Israeli resident employee automatically receives 2.25 credit points as the basic resident allowance. This gives a 6,345 ILS annual reduction in tax. Additional credit points can be awarded for specific circumstances: women employees receive an extra 0.5 point; parents of young children receive additional points; olim hadashim (new immigrants) receive a sliding scale of additional points during their first years in Israel; and members of recognized religious groups may receive further points. Because credit points reduce the final tax bill and cannot push the bill below zero, taxpayers with very low incomes may not benefit from all their points if they have insufficient gross tax to absorb them.
