2025 IRS 401(k) Contribution Limits

The IRS sets annual limits on how much you and your employer can contribute to a 401(k) plan. Knowing these limits helps you maximize tax-advantaged savings. Here are the current limits:

 20242025
Employee elective deferrals (pretax + Roth)$23,000$23,500
Employee + employer contributions combined$69,000$70,000
Catch-up contributions (age 50+)$7,500$7,500
