Real tax rate
44.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 43.9% tax rate now rises to 44.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 20,159,988 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 8,859,220 元. That means that your net pay will be 11,300,768 元 per year, or 941,731 元 per month.
