EOBI Contribution Calculator Pakistan
Calculate monthly EOBI contributions for employer and employee based on the current wage ceiling. EOBI contribution is 5% of minimum wages (employer 1% + employee 5% under new rules), applicable to all registered businesses in Pakistan.
Introduction
The Employees' Old-Age Benefits Institution (EOBI) provides pension benefits to registered workers across Pakistan. Both employers and employees contribute monthly, based on the minimum wage ceiling notified by the government. Understanding these contributions is important for payroll compliance and for employees verifying their payslips.
