Social security in Republic of Congo

In the Republic of Congo, social security contributions are required for both employers and employees. Employers are generally not required to make social security contributions for employees temporarily seconded to Congo that stay in the country for less than three months. However, for employees who are staying in the country for longer than three months, the employer must pay social security contributions on their total remuneration in cash and in kind to the National Social Security Office (CNSS).

The rate of social security contributions in the Republic of Congo is 20.29%, which includes a pension contribution of 8% of the maximum gross salary with a monthly limit of XAF1.2 million; a family allowance contribution of 10.04% of the maximum gross salary with a monthly limit of XAF600,000; and an industrial accident contribution of 2.25% of the maximum gross salary with a monthly limit of XAF600,000.

Employee social security contributions are payable at 0.04% of the maximum gross salary, with a monthly cap of XAF1.2 million, and are withheld by the employer.
