Real tax rate
31.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 13.2% tax rate now rises to 31.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 21,912 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 2,889 元. That means that your net pay will be 19,023 元 per year, or 1,585 元 per month.
