Real tax rate
42.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 40% tax rate now rises to 42.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 4,112,304 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 1,645,266 元. That means that your net pay will be 2,467,038 元 per year, or 205,586 元 per month.
