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 16,759,518,792 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 7,723,271,663 円. That means that your net pay will be 9,036,247,129 円 per year, or 753,020,594 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.
