GDPR Fine Calculator
Estimate the indicative GDPR administrative-fine band for your situation. The calculator implements the Article 83(2) factors and the EDPB Guidelines 04/2022 — the same framework supervisory authorities use to set the actual fine. Indicative only; not legal advice.
Used to apply the 2% (lower tier) or 4% (upper tier) global-turnover cap. Single-undertaking turnover for an undertaking; consolidated turnover for a group acting as a single undertaking.
Indicative fine band
€3,786,750 – €9,983,250
Midpoint estimate: €6,885,000
Statutory cap
€20,000,000
€20M or 4%, whichever is higher
Calculation: statutory cap × severity multiplier (0.45) × cooperation factor (0.90) × prior-infringement factor (0.85), with ±45% band around the midpoint.
Source model: GDPR Article 83(2) factors + EDPB Guidelines 04/2022 on the calculation of administrative fines. Simplified — your supervisory authority's actual fine reflects all eleven Art. 83(2) factors, many of which (intentional vs negligent character, manner in which the authority became aware) are not captured here.

How are GDPR fines calculated under Article 83?
GDPR fines are set by the supervisory authority on a case-by-case basis using the eleven Article 83(2) factors. The cap depends on the article infringed — €10M or 2% of global turnover for procedural duties (Art. 83(4)), €20M or 4% for core-principle and rights breaches (Art. 83(5)). The EDPB Guidelines 04/2022 set the five-step methodology authorities use.
- Step 1 — categorise the infringement and identify the applicable cap (Art. 83(4) or 83(5))
- Step 2 — set the starting amount based on the seriousness of the infringement
- Step 3 — adjust for aggravating or mitigating circumstances under Art. 83(2)
- Step 4 — apply the statutory maximum cap
- Step 5 — apply effectiveness, proportionality, and dissuasiveness (Art. 83(1))
