Japan Hourly to Monthly and Annual Salary Converter
Convert pay in Japan between hourly wage, daily, monthly and annual salary from your daily hours, working days and bonus months, for job offers and part-time.
Japan's minimum wage is set by prefecture each October; check that the hourly amount is not below the minimum of your prefecture.
Monthly hours = hours a day × days a week × 52 ÷ 12 (173.3 hours for 8 hours, 5 days). Annual income = monthly salary × (12 + bonus months), before tax and social insurance.
