Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 468,711,360 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 212,042,200 円. That means that your net pay will be 256,669,160 円 per year, or 21,389,097 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.2% 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.
