Real tax rate
35.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.3% tax rate now rises to 35.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 8,623,680 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 2,266,291 円. That means that your net pay will be 6,357,389 円 per year, or 529,782 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.3% 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 27.48 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 72.52 円.
