Real tax rate
38.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.3% tax rate now rises to 38.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,905,000 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 652,758 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,252,242 元 per year, or 104,354 元 per month.
