Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 13,017 円 to pay you 88,642 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 3.34 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 18.7% tax rate now rises to 29.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,063,704 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 199,353 円. That means that your net pay will be 864,351 円 per year, or 72,029 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 18.7% and your marginal tax rate is 18.8%. 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 18.75 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 81.25 円.
Bonus Example
