Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,010 元 to pay you 132,500 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.97 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
36.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 32.1% tax rate now rises to 36.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,590,000 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 511,008 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,078,992 元 per year, or 89,916 元 per month.
