Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 299,997 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 4.28 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 39.1% tax rate now rises to 41.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 3,599,964 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 1,407,209 元. That means that your net pay will be 2,192,755 元 per year, or 182,730 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 39.1% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. 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 45 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 55 元.
