Status is read from the record: fixed by law follows from a standing rule (a fixed date or the Easter computus); confirmed is dated in the cited official calendar and not flagged provisional; estimated is provisional or moon-sighting dependent; substitute stands in for a statutory day that fell on a weekend or was moved. Hover a status for the reason.

18% is the general rate; deposit-account interest carries duration-dependent reduced rates (up to 13.5% individuals / 16.5% enterprises) and current-account interest 13.5%/16.5%. Bond interest falls under the IRVM, not the IRC.

keylabelrate totalrate employeerate employerunitbasecurrency
prestations_familialesFamily benefits branch / Branche des prestations familiales (CNPS)505percentArticle 23 alinea 1 of the Code de prevoyance sociale: cotisations are assises "sur l'ensemble des salaires y compris les avantages en nature et indemnites diverses versees par l'employeur a son personnel salarie a l'exception des indemnites ayant le caractere de remboursement de frais". Subject to BOTH a floor and a ceiling of 75 000 FCFA per month, which for this branch are the same number - see notes.XOF
Employer-only. THE FLOOR AND THE CEILING ARE THE SAME NUMBER FOR THIS BRANCH, so for any employee paid at or above the SMIG the contribution is a FIXED 3 750 FCFA per month (5% of 75 000), not a percentage of actual pay. An engine that multiplies 5% by gross salary will…
assurance_materniteMaternity insurance branch / Branche assurance maternite (CNPS)0.7500.75percentSame assiette as family benefits (article 23 Code de prevoyance sociale), subject to the same 75 000 FCFA monthly floor and 75 000 FCFA monthly ceiling.XOF
Employer-only. Served as its own branch because the CNPS itself lists it as a separate rate line and it is a separate branch of the regime, not a component of family benefits. Like family benefits it is capped and floored at 75 000 FCFA, giving a FIXED 562,50 FCFA per month for…
accidents_du_travailWork accidents and occupational diseases branch / Branche accidents du travail et maladies professionnelles (CNPS) - risk-rated by sector—0—percentSame assiette as the other short-term branches (article 23 Code de prevoyance sociale), subject to the same 75 000 FCFA monthly floor and 75 000 FCFA monthly ceiling. The rate is 2 to 5 percent "selon le secteur d'activite" and is notified to the individual employer by the CNPS.XOF
NO SINGLE NATIONAL RATE - rate_employer is deliberately null. The band is 2% to 5% of the capped assiette, graded by sector of activity according to the risk incurred. THE RATE IS NOT SELF-ASSESSED FROM A PUBLISHED TABLE: it is notified to the employer individually by the CNPS…
assurance_vieillesseOld-age pension branch / Branche assurance vieillesse - regime de retraite (CNPS)146.37.7percentSame assiette (article 23 Code de prevoyance sociale), but with a DIFFERENT and far higher ceiling: 3 375 000 FCFA per month, being 45 times the SMIG. The 75 000 FCFA monthly floor applies to this branch as well. Both shares are computed on the same capped base.XOF
THIS IS THE ONLY BRANCH THE EMPLOYEE PAYS INTO. 6,3% of capped salary is the entire payslip deduction in Cote d'Ivoire, a maximum of 212 625 FCFA per month at the 3 375 000 ceiling. The employer's 7,7% brings the branch to 14%. The split is NOT even and is not a half-share: do…
cmuUniversal health coverage contribution / Couverture Maladie Universelle (CMU) - IPS-CNAM———currency per monthA flat contribution of 1 000 FCFA per person per month - per covered person, not a percentage of salary and not capped by reference to salary. For salaried workers it is levied at source through the payroll.XOF
SEPARATE INSTITUTION, SEPARATE LAW, SEPARATE MECHANIC - the CMU is administered by IPS-CNAM, not by the CNPS, and is NOT one of the CNPS branches. It is a FLAT SUM PER COVERED PERSON, so rate fields are null by construction: 1 000 FCFA per person per month, unrelated to salary…

What makes this different

Every value above names the official instrument it came from and the date it takes effect, and we record when we last checked it. Where a value could not be verified against its own statute we do not publish an estimate — the series is simply absent. Where a question falls outside what we hold, the API refuses and explains, free of charge, rather than returning a number that looks right.
