Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45.9% tax rate now rises to 46.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,957,954,128 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 898,689,821 円. That means that your net pay will be 1,059,264,307 円 per year, or 88,272,026 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.9% 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 46.10 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.90 円.
