Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 25,350,000 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.50 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44.9% tax rate now rises to 45.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 304,200,000 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 136,677,225 元. That means that your net pay will be 167,522,775 元 per year, or 13,960,231 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.9% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
