Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 29% tax rate now rises to 36.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,250,080 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 363,034 元. That means that your net pay will be 887,046 元 per year, or 73,921 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 29.0% and your marginal tax rate is 43.0%. 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 43.01 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 56.99 元.
