Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 98,030 円 to pay you 696,561 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.03 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
35.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.2% tax rate now rises to 35.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 8,358,732 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 2,193,490 円. That means that your net pay will be 6,165,242 円 per year, or 513,770 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.2% and your marginal tax rate is 27.5%. 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 27.47 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 72.53 円.
Bonus Example
