Real tax rate
40.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.2% tax rate now rises to 40.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,639,520 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 982,513 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,657,007 元 per year, or 138,084 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 37.2% 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.
