How is it calculated?
This calculator follows Turkish rules. It is not a general international formula.
Turkish severance uses capped gross wage times years of service. Eligibility rules and stamp duty are not a full payroll. Check the official ceiling.
severance ≈ min(gross wage, legal ceiling) × years

Guide
Estimate severance (kıdem) from tenure and gross wage, subject to eligibility and the legal ceiling. Not legal advice—verify under labour law and your case facts.
2026 ceiling notes and common mistakes
The ceiling may rise in 2026. Using net pay, ignoring regular benefits in the base, or calculating when there is no entitlement are common errors.
