Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 284,410 円 to pay you 26,056,435 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.59 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
45.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44.8% tax rate now rises to 45.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 312,677,220 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 140,099,282 円. That means that your net pay will be 172,577,938 円 per year, or 14,381,495 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.8% 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.
