Real tax rate
42.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41% tax rate now rises to 42.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 5,078,316 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 2,079,971 元. That means that your net pay will be 2,998,345 元 per year, or 249,862 元 per month.
