Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 12.9% tax rate now rises to 28.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 15.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 4,752 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 613 元. That means that your net pay will be 4,139 元 per year, or 345 元 per month.
