Real tax rate
40.0%

Summary
If you make 2,429,960 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 888,211 元. That means that your net pay will be 1,541,749 元 per year, or 128,479 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 36.6% 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.
