Pag-IBIG Contribution Table 2026

Pag-IBIG contributions are the simplest of the three mandatory deductions, and the one most often miscalculated — because almost everyone hits the same ceiling.

How the rate works

There are only two employee rates. If your monthly compensation is ₱1,500 or below, you contribute 1%. Above ₱1,500, you contribute 2%. Your employer contributes 2% regardless.

The part that catches people out is the ceiling. Contributions are computed on a maximum monthly compensation of ₱10,000, not on your actual salary. So the employee share stops at ₱200 whether you earn ₱10,000, ₱40,000 or ₱150,000 — and the employer share likewise stops at ₱200.

The contribution does grow with pay — from ₱10 at ₱1,000 up to ₱200 — but it stops growing once compensation reaches ₱10,000. That is why Pag-IBIG appears as a flat ₱200 line on most payslips, while SSS and PhilHealth keep rising.

Who this applies to

Pag-IBIG Fund states that membership is mandatory for employees covered by SSS or GSIS, including household workers and overseas Filipino workers, and that self-employed earners may register and contribute on the same schedule. Confirm your own category and any minimum income condition with Pag-IBIG before relying on it.

Saving more than the minimum

You can contribute above the mandatory amount. Many members do this to build a larger balance ahead of a housing or multi-purpose loan application. Pag-IBIG’s loan programs take total accumulated savings into account, though each loan has its own eligibility and computation rules — check the specific program before assuming a larger balance raises what you can borrow.

If your goal is returns rather than loan eligibility, the MP2 Savings Program is worth comparing: a separate voluntary account with a five-year term, which Pag-IBIG declared at 7.12% for 2025 against 6.62% for Regular Savings. MP2 is not a substitute for mandatory contributions and has its own maturity and pre-termination rules.

Checking what has actually been posted

Your employer deducting a contribution is not the same as Pag-IBIG receiving it. Check your posted contributions through Virtual Pag-IBIG before applying for any loan — see how to check your Pag-IBIG contributions online.

Where this fits in your payslip

Pag-IBIG is one of three mandatory deductions, alongside SSS and PhilHealth, all taken before withholding tax is computed. To see the combined effect on your take-home pay, use the Net Pay Calculator.
