Real tax rate
42.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41% tax rate now rises to 42.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 5,142,024 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 2,108,640 元. That means that your net pay will be 3,033,384 元 per year, or 252,782 元 per month.
