Real tax rate
37.8%

Summary
If you make 34,008 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 5,992 元. That means that your net pay will be 28,016 元 per year, or 2,335 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 17.6% and your marginal tax rate is 60.2%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 元 in your salary will be taxed 60.19 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 39.81 元.
