Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,010 元 to pay you 1,535,000 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.45 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 43.9% tax rate now rises to 44.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 18,420,000 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 8,084,508 元. That means that your net pay will be 10,335,492 元 per year, or 861,291 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 43.9% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
