2026 Year-End Tax Settlement: Is the Basic Credit Card Income Deduction Limit KRW 4,000,000 for Workers with 2 Children?
Yes. Starting with the 2026 tax year, employees with total annual salary of KRW 70,000,000 or less who have at least 2 qualifying children or other eligible descendants will see the annual basic income deduction limit for credit card and other eligible spending increase from KRW 3,000,000 to KRW 4,000,000. However, having 2 children does not automatically entitle someone to a deduction of KRW 4,000,000 or a tax refund of KRW 4,000,000. Total annual salary KRW 70,000,000
