Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 4,915,530,360 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 2,262,344,374 円. That means that your net pay will be 2,653,185,986 円 per year, or 221,098,832 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 46.0% 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 46.10 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.90 円.
