Real tax rate
39.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 35.8% tax rate now rises to 39.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,233,660 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 799,876 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,433,784 元 per year, or 119,482 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 35.8% 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.
