Real tax rate
42.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 40.9% tax rate now rises to 42.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 5,130,012 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 2,095,731 元. That means that your net pay will be 3,034,281 元 per year, or 252,857 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 40.9% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
