Is there a 13th month pay in Spain?

Yes, it is standard practice in Spain for employers to provide not just 13 but 14 yearly payments.

How is the 13th month pay calculated in Spain?

Generally, an employee’s annual salary will be divided into 14 equal payments, so the ‘13th-month payment’ will equal one-fourteenth of the annual salary.

There are two mandatory bonus payments in addition to the normal 12 monthly payments. These must be paid in July and December.
