Real tax rate
43.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.4% tax rate now rises to 43.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 7,961,244 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 3,377,289 元. That means that your net pay will be 4,583,955 元 per year, or 381,996 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.4% 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.
