The Technology Centre Prague has developed an indicative calculator that clearly explains how contributions for researchers recruited under Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) projects are translated into gross and, ultimately, net salary.

It applies to cases where the host institution pays the researcher’s Living Allowance, Mobility Allowance and, where applicable, Family Allowance as part of their salary. It reflects the conditions applicable in Czechia in 2026 and serves solely as an indicative and illustrative tool.

It is intended for the MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships and Doctoral Networks schemes.
