Real tax rate
42.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41% tax rate now rises to 42.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 5,099,988 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 2,089,724 元. That means that your net pay will be 3,010,264 元 per year, or 250,855 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 41.0% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
