Real tax rate
37.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 31.9% tax rate now rises to 37.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,620,900 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 516,630 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,104,270 元 per year, or 92,022 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 31.9% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
