What a 100,000 THB salary really costs an employer
Gross salary is only the starting line. Here is the full employer-side cost breakdown Settlr calculates before every offer letter goes out, using a 100,000 THB monthly gross salary as the example.
| Gross monthly salary | ฿100,000 |
| Employer social security (5%, capped)Capped at 750 THB/month regardless of salary level | ฿750 |
| Provident fund (if offered, typical 3–5%)Optional; matched employer contribution | ฿3,000 – ฿5,000 |
| Severance accrual (tenure-based provision)Notional monthly accrual toward statutory severance liability | ฿4,000 – ฿8,300 |
| Total employer cost (approx.)Roughly 8–14% above gross salary, before optional benefits | ฿107,750 – ฿114,050 |
Personal income tax and the employee's 5% SSO contribution are withheld from the employee's gross pay, not added to employer cost. Figures are illustrative; Settlr's Payroll Tax Calculator gives an exact estimate for any salary level. Try the calculator

Questions
Before you run payroll
How does payroll work in Thailand?
Employers must calculate salaries, withhold personal income tax under progressive brackets, deduct 5 percent employee social security (capped monthly), add the 5 percent employer contribution, file PND.1 by the 7th of the following month (15th if e filed), and remit social security by the 15th. Settlr runs this entire cycle and files every form.
What are the employer costs on top of salary in Thailand?
Budget roughly 5 percent of salary for employer social security (capped at 750 THB per month at the current wage ceiling), plus provident fund contributions if offered, and severance obligations that accrue with tenure. On a 100,000 THB salary the statutory employer add on is modest, but compliance administration is where most companies stumble.
