Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 162,662 円 to pay you 5,765,039 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.30 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 40.2% tax rate now rises to 41.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 69,180,468 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 27,829,833 円. That means that your net pay will be 41,350,635 円 per year, or 3,445,886 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 40.2% 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.
Bonus Example
