Real tax rate
43.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.9% tax rate now rises to 43.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 9,869,600 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 4,236,049 元. That means that your net pay will be 5,633,551 元 per year, or 469,463 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.9% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
