Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 35.8% tax rate now rises to 38.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 37,002,264 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 13,230,405 円. That means that your net pay will be 23,771,859 円 per year, or 1,980,988 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 35.8% 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.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 590 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 2,949 円 of net incomes.
