Real tax rate
39.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.2% tax rate now rises to 39.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,617,584 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 973,420 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,644,164 元 per year, or 137,014 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 37.2% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
