Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 156,485 円 to pay you 4,735,553 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.23 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
40.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 38.9% tax rate now rises to 40.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 56,826,636 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 22,133,831 円. That means that your net pay will be 34,692,805 円 per year, or 2,891,067 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 39.0% 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 46.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.89 円.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 539 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 2,695 円 of net incomes.
