Real tax rate
38.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.7% tax rate now rises to 38.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,979,904 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 686,464 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,293,440 元 per year, or 107,787 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 34.7% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
