Real tax rate
46.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 28% tax rate now rises to 46.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 55,008 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 15,411 元. That means that your net pay will be 39,597 元 per year, or 3,300 元 per month.
