Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 11,049 元 to pay you 66,461 元. In other words, every time you spend 10 元 of your hard-earned money, 3.90 元 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22.3% tax rate now rises to 33.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 797,532 元 a year living in the region of Shanghai, China, you will be taxed 178,144 元. That means that your net pay will be 619,388 元 per year, or 51,616 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 22.3% and your marginal tax rate is 35.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
