Frequently asked questions

What are EPF and ETF?

Employee contributes 8% of gross salary to EPF. Employer contributes 12% to EPF plus 3% to ETF. Rates are editable above in case they change.

Is EPF/ETF deducted from taxable income?

Employee EPF is typically deducted before PAYE is calculated. ETF is paid by the employer and doesn't reduce your take-home.
