Real tax rate
38.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.5% tax rate now rises to 38.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,945,008 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 670,761 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,274,247 元 per year, or 106,187 元 per month.
