Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,010 元 to pay you 51,250 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.71 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 27.6% tax rate now rises to 39.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 615,000 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 169,441 元. That means that your net pay will be 445,559 元 per year, or 37,130 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 27.6% and your marginal tax rate is 30.0%. 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 30 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 70 元.
