Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 46.1% tax rate now rises to 46.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 15,180,271,344 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 6,995,125,436 円. That means that your net pay will be 8,185,145,908 円 per year, or 682,095,492 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 46.1% and your marginal tax rate is 46.1%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
