Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44.9% tax rate now rises to 45.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 347,177,640 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 156,006,447 円. That means that your net pay will be 191,171,193 円 per year, or 15,930,933 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.9% 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 46.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.89 円.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 539 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 2,695 円 of net incomes.
