Real tax rate
39.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 35.8% tax rate now rises to 39.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,226,240 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 797,316 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,428,924 元 per year, or 119,077 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 35.8% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
