About MicaraTools

Free tools for the paperwork and payroll math of working in the Philippines.

MicaraTools helps Filipino employees, freelancers and small-business owners with the numbers and documents that come up again and again: what your take-home pay really is after SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG and BIR tax, how overtime and holiday pay are computed, what you need to bring for a passport, NBI clearance or DTI registration, and how to write the letters and certificates offices ask for. There are currently 55 tools, plus in-depth guides that explain the rules behind them.

What makes these tools different

  • Built around Philippine rules. Contribution tables and tax brackets follow the current SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG and BIR schedules, and are updated when they change.
  • Private. The calculators and generators run in your browser, so what you type stays on your device. The exception is the transcription tools, which send the audio to our server and our speech-to-text provider to transcribe it, as explained on each tool’s page.
  • Free & no sign-up. Open a tool and start using it immediately.
  • Honest. Where a result is an estimate or approximation, we say so on the page.

A note on accuracy

We aim to get the math right and explain how each calculation works. That said, these tools are for general information and convenience. For anything important — financial, legal, medical, or tax decisions — please verify the result with a professional or an authoritative source.
