Real tax rate
44.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44.5% tax rate now rises to 44.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 38,844,744 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 17,274,864 元. That means that your net pay will be 21,569,880 元 per year, or 1,797,490 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.5% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
