FAQ

EPF projection calculator questions

A few quick notes on how this KWSP projection and retirement runway estimate works.

How does this EPF projection calculator work?

It projects your current EPF balance using your selected dividend rate, monthly EPF contribution, salary increment assumption and voluntary top-up. The projection uses an EPF-style annual dividend estimate: monthly balances accrue dividend during the year, contributions start earning from the following month, and dividend is credited annually. EPF's actual dividend calculation uses the Modified Aggregate Daily Balance concept and annual dividend crediting.

What EPF contribution rate does it use?

In salary mode, it uses the statutory benchmark rate for Malaysian employees: before age 60, 24% if monthly salary is RM5,000 or below and 23% if salary is above RM5,000; from age 60 onward, 4%. This is an approximate headline-rate estimate. Actual payroll EPF contributions may differ slightly because employers normally follow the KWSP Third Schedule contribution table and rounding rules. Manual mode lets you enter your own monthly EPF contribution.

Does it include salary increments?

Yes. Salary mode grows future EPF contributions once per projection year using your salary increment assumption. Manual contribution mode keeps the monthly contribution constant unless you change it.

Can it show the EPF account split?

No. This calculator shows total EPF balance only because a reliable split requires your actual Akaun Persaraan, Akaun Sejahtera and Akaun Fleksibel balances. Showing a split from total balance alone can be misleading.

Can I include an age 55 withdrawal?

Yes. Enter a planned withdrawal at age 55 and the projection will reduce your estimated balance from age 55 onward.

How is inflation used?

Your retirement spending input is treated as today's amount. The calculator inflates that amount to your selected retirement start age, then holds the inflated monthly burn rate fixed during the runway estimate.

What is the EPF voluntary contribution limit?

The calculator caps recurring monthly voluntary top-up projections at RM8,333 per month, equivalent to the RM100,000 annual voluntary contribution limit.

Does EPF keep earning dividends after retirement?

The dividend-adjusted runway assumes your remaining EPF balance continues earning the selected dividend rate while you withdraw monthly spending. The simple runway ignores future dividends after retirement.

Is this official KWSP advice?

No. This is an independent planning calculator for estimation only. Visit kwsp.gov.my or speak to a licensed financial planner for personalised advice.

Disclaimer - This calculator provides estimates for planning purposes only. Projections use an EPF-style annual dividend approximation for long-term planning; EPF's actual dividend calculation uses the Modified Aggregate Daily Balance concept and annual dividend crediting. Projections assume a constant dividend rate, annual salary increment step-up, inflation rate before retirement, monthly contribution pattern, no withdrawals before retirement other than the optional age 55 withdrawal, and no unexpected career breaks. Retirement spending is inflated to your selected retirement start age and then held fixed during the runway estimate. Actual EPF dividends vary annually and are declared by the EPF Board. Voluntary contribution limits and EPF policies may change. This tool does not account for taxes, emergencies, medical inflation beyond your selected inflation assumption, investment losses outside EPF, or changes in retirement lifestyle.
