Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 10,990 元 to pay you 33,388 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 5.97 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.8% tax rate now rises to 44.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 18.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 400,656 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 107,452 元. That means that your net pay will be 293,204 元 per year, or 24,434 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.8% and your marginal tax rate is 30.3%. 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 30.25 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 69.75 元.
