Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44% tax rate now rises to 44.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 21,385,512 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 9,410,706 元. That means that your net pay will be 11,974,806 元 per year, or 997,901 元 per month.
