Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 143,333 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.03 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
37.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 32.6% tax rate now rises to 37.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,719,996 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 561,224 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,158,772 元 per year, or 96,564 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 32.6% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
