    Supported employee scenario

    • Only supplied input choices with complete calculation rules are supported; other choices are refused, never silently ignored.
    • No ETA (official) source was retrieved. The rates rest on PwC, Morison and Andersen, which agree with each other.
    • The exact band limits inside each high-income tier come from Deloitte's Law 175/2023 grid, re-based to the Law 7/2024 thresholds. The tiers are confirmed by Morison; the exact boundaries should be checked against the ETA tables.
    • UHI: it is unconfirmed whether the employee's 1% replaces the sickness part of the 11% SI or is charged on top. The list of live governorates in 2026 (phase 2 is expanding to Minya and others) is also unconfirmed.
    • Whether the Martyrs Fund is deductible is unconfirmed.
