Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 160,603 円 to pay you 5,421,932 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.28 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 39.9% tax rate now rises to 41.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 65,063,184 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 25,931,470 円. That means that your net pay will be 39,131,714 円 per year, or 3,260,976 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 39.9% 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.
