Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 105,561 円 to pay you 832,630 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 3.92 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
34.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.5% tax rate now rises to 34.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 9,991,560 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 2,647,284 円. That means that your net pay will be 7,344,276 円 per year, or 612,023 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.5% and your marginal tax rate is 33.1%. 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 33.09 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 66.91 円.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 669 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 3,346 円 of net incomes.
