- What is the minimum wage in Germany in 2027?
- The statutory minimum wage rises to €14.60 an hour on 1 January 2027 (Fifth Minimum Wage Adjustment Ordinance). In 2026 it is €13.90.
- What is the mini-job threshold in 2027?
- The mini-job threshold is tied to the minimum wage: minimum wage times 130 divided by 3, rounded up to full euros. For 2027 that gives €633 a month instead of €603, so the transition zone (Midijob) runs from €633.01 to €2,000.
- Are the 2027 figures already official?
- Not all of them. The minimum wage and the mini-job threshold are fixed. Others, such as the income tax schedule, the contribution ceilings or the average health top-up rate, are decided or announced in the autumn. The table above shows for each figure whether it is official or still a draft, and the calculators are updated as soon as the final numbers are out.
- When do the new figures apply?
- As a rule from 1 January 2027, i.e. from the first January payslip. Until then the regular calculators keep using the 2026 figures.
- What happens to this page in January?
- Once 2027 has started and the figures are final, the regular calculators switch to 2027. The preview pages then redirect to them, so bookmarks keep working.
