Hi,

I am currently living in Germany and have been offered a job in Copenhagen.
My employer says, the monthy salary would be 53K DKK and a pension contribution of 2% which will be deducted from salary.
My wife is currently a student in an University and has no income.
As danish tax system seems very complicated to understand. Can someone please let me know what my net salary would be?

Married, wife no income, yearly income 650,000 kroner, living in Gladsaxe municipality, yearly tax = 239.346,90 kroner.

2 % pension contribution isn't much. Most general pension scheme is 5 % to the employee, 10 % to the employer.
