Real tax rate
46.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.8% tax rate now rises to 46.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 21.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 45,000 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 11,171 元. That means that your net pay will be 33,829 元 per year, or 2,819 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.8% and your marginal tax rate is 24.8%. 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 24.83 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 75.17 元.
