Real tax rate
43.2%

Summary
If you make 6,959,688 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 2,926,589 元. That means that your net pay will be 4,033,099 元 per year, or 336,092 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.1% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 元 in your salary will be taxed 45 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 55 元.
