Real tax rate
46.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.8% tax rate now rises to 46.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 21.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 35,508 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 8,815 元. That means that your net pay will be 26,693 元 per year, or 2,224 元 per month.
