Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 180,012 円 to pay you 8,656,700 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.43 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
43.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.2% tax rate now rises to 43.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 103,880,400 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 43,828,988 円. That means that your net pay will be 60,051,412 円 per year, or 5,004,284 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.2% 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.
