Real tax rate
40.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 36.8% tax rate now rises to 40.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,514,996 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 926,477 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,588,519 元 per year, or 132,377 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 36.8% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
