Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 150,872 円 to pay you 3,800,000 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.12 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.2% tax rate now rises to 39.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 45,600,000 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 16,966,963 円. That means that your net pay will be 28,633,037 円 per year, or 2,386,086 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 37.2% 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 45.87 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 54.13 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.
