Capital gains tax is country-specific

This page estimates capital gains tax under Korea rules. Because brackets, deductions, and social contributions are country-specific and can change yearly, use the result as a planning estimate before filing.

Core calculation rules

Rule 1

Starts from transfer price minus acquisition price.

Rule 2

Reflects a KRW 2.5M basic deduction for real estate and foreign stocks.

Rule 3

Domestic listed minority holdings are treated as exempt; foreign stocks separate 20% national tax and 10% local tax.

How to use

  1. Enter the required amounts and conditions.
  2. Review the tax, deduction, and contribution lines separately.
  3. Compare with current official rules before filing, paying, or making a decision.

Frequently asked questions

Which country does this calculator use?

Why can the final amount differ?

Exemptions, long-term deductions, necessary expenses, or major-shareholder rules can change the result.

Do the rules change every year?

Yes. Tax rates, deduction limits, and social contribution rates can change each year. Confirm the current-year rules before filing or paying.
