Real tax rate
37.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33.3% tax rate now rises to 37.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 25,364,436 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 8,456,861 円. That means that your net pay will be 16,907,575 円 per year, or 1,408,965 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 33.3% and your marginal tax rate is 41.0%. 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 41.02 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 58.98 円.
