Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,010 元 to pay you 61,250 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.28 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
36.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.4% tax rate now rises to 36.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 735,000 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 194,147 元. That means that your net pay will be 540,853 元 per year, or 45,071 元 per month.
