Real tax rate
30.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.1% tax rate now rises to 30.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 3,334,248 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 671,091 円. That means that your net pay will be 2,663,157 円 per year, or 221,930 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.1% and your marginal tax rate is 23.1%. 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 23.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 76.89 円.
