Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 35,470,006,992 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 16,350,147,329 円. That means that your net pay will be 19,119,859,663 円 per year, or 1,593,321,639 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 46.1% 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.
