Real tax rate
39.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37% tax rate now rises to 39.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,571,144 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 952,522 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,618,622 元 per year, or 134,885 元 per month.
