Real tax rate
39.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 36.5% tax rate now rises to 39.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,404,480 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 876,745 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,527,735 元 per year, or 127,311 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 36.5% 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.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 元 bonus will generate an extra 550 元 of net incomes. A 5,000 元 bonus will generate an extra 2,750 元 of net incomes.
