Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 498,160 元 a year living in the region of Beijing, China, you will be taxed 139,066 元. That means that your net pay will be 359,094 元 per year, or 29,925 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 27.9% and your marginal tax rate is -17.9%. 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 -17.87 元, hence, your net pay will only increase by 118 元.
