Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 198,000,000 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 88,894,729 元. That means that your net pay will be 109,105,271 元 per year, or 9,092,106 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.9% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
