Real tax rate
36.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 31.8% tax rate now rises to 36.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,544,916 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 490,720 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,054,196 元 per year, or 87,850 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 31.8% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
