Real tax rate
41.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 39.8% tax rate now rises to 41.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 3,960,072 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 1,577,540 元. That means that your net pay will be 2,382,532 元 per year, or 198,544 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 39.8% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
