Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 671,297,616 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 305,448,980 円. That means that your net pay will be 365,848,636 円 per year, or 30,487,386 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.5% 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.
