Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 109,287 円 to pay you 899,947 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
34.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 27% tax rate now rises to 34.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 10,799,364 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 2,917,397 円. That means that your net pay will be 7,881,967 円 per year, or 656,831 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 27.0% and your marginal tax rate is 37.2%. 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 37.16 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 62.84 円.
