Tips!

Check both parents' leave and the child's age for Korea's 6+6 program.
Monthly caps apply even when the regular wage is higher.
Confirm return-to-work and insurance requirements before applying.

Important notes

  • Check the filing window and employment-center process after leave begins.
  • Korea's 6+6 option requires the child to be within 18 months and both parents to take leave.
  • Work or income during leave can change eligibility.
  • Confirm the approved leave dates and return date with the employer.

Planning estimate only. Final eligibility and caps are decided by the relevant agency, employer, or local program.

STEPS

How to use

  1. Choose a country and enter the wage and planned leave period.
  2. For Korea, set the 6+6 option and child age; for Japan, set the post-birth support condition.
  3. Review the monthly estimate and enter official local or employer amounts for China and the US.
