Real tax rate
39.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.5% tax rate now rises to 39.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 47,209,344 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 17,705,120 円. That means that your net pay will be 29,504,224 円 per year, or 2,458,685 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 45.87 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 54.13 円.
