Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 43.1% tax rate now rises to 44.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 136,532,904 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 58,884,131 円. That means that your net pay will be 77,648,773 円 per year, or 6,470,731 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 43.1% and your marginal tax rate is 46.1%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 円 in your salary will be taxed 46.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.89 円.
