Real tax rate
44.5%

Summary
If you make 165,210,756 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 72,106,676 円. That means that your net pay will be 93,104,080 円 per year, or 7,758,673 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 43.7% 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.
