Real tax rate
35.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 27.4% tax rate now rises to 35.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 11,187,852 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 3,061,737 円. That means that your net pay will be 8,126,115 円 per year, or 677,176 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 27.4% 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 37.15 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 62.85 円.
