Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 8,455 元 to pay you 24,267 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 6.48 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
48.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 29.9% tax rate now rises to 48.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 291,204 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 87,129 元. That means that your net pay will be 204,075 元 per year, or 17,006 元 per month.
