Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 26,548 円 to pay you 180,782 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 3.35 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 18.8% tax rate now rises to 29.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 2,169,384 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 408,796 円. That means that your net pay will be 1,760,588 円 per year, or 146,716 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 18.8% and your marginal tax rate is 20.9%. 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 20.85 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 79.15 円.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 792 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 3,958 円 of net incomes.
