Real tax rate
38.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.1% tax rate now rises to 38.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,882,080 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 642,444 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,239,636 元 per year, or 103,303 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 34.1% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
