Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 1,019,200 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 264,596 元. That means that your net pay will be 754,604 元 per year, or 62,884 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.0% and your marginal tax rate is 35.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
