Real tax rate
43.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 42.3% tax rate now rises to 43.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 106,853,760 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 45,199,920 円. That means that your net pay will be 61,653,840 円 per year, or 5,137,820 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 42.3% 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.
