Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.4% tax rate now rises to 39.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 46,906,272 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 17,566,110 円. That means that your net pay will be 29,340,162 円 per year, or 2,445,013 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 37.5% 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.
