Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 130,329 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.99 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
36.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 31.4% tax rate now rises to 36.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,563,948 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 491,002 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,072,946 元 per year, or 89,412 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 31.4% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
