Typical model for appointed board fees: no pension/disability/sickness ZUS on this title, health on full gross (not deductible from advance), advance per scale (PLN 120k annual threshold prorated) or 19% flat.

For information only. Actual settlement depends on resolutions, ZUS status, PIT-2 filings, chosen taxation form, and the law in force.

A resolution on pay is a company document

The calculator converts one appointed fee. The company still needs the resolution and the filing with the tax office. We keep the books of companies that pay the board this way.

Questions and answers

What does this calculator cover?

Pay of a board member appointed by resolution, not an employment contract. It calculates gross, net, the tax advance and, if you switch it on, the health contribution.

When is the health contribution added?

When the appointed person is covered by health insurance on that title. The calculator has a separate switch, because not every appointment payment is insured the same way.

Can the company stop at this figure?

No. The result simulates one payment. The company books still need the resolution and the settlement with the tax office. We do that as part of full accounting.
