Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 9,246 元 to pay you 31,250 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.04 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 30.8% tax rate now rises to 46.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 15.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 375,000 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 115,554 元. That means that your net pay will be 259,446 元 per year, or 21,621 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.8% and your marginal tax rate is -20.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 元 in your salary will be taxed -20.54 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 121 元.
