Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 149,886 円 to pay you 3,635,754 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.09 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 36.8% tax rate now rises to 39.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 43,629,048 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 16,062,947 円. That means that your net pay will be 27,566,101 円 per year, or 2,297,175 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 36.8% and your marginal tax rate is 45.9%. 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 45.86 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 54.14 円.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 541 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 2,707 円 of net incomes.
