Real tax rate
35.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 27.1% tax rate now rises to 35.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 10,883,100 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 2,948,509 円. That means that your net pay will be 7,934,591 円 per year, or 661,216 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 27.1% 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.
