Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1,572 円 to pay you 138,810 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 4.58 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
45.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44.7% tax rate now rises to 45.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.59999999999999% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 288,724,800 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 129,055,500 円. That means that your net pay will be 159,669,300 円 per year, or 13,305,775 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.7% 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.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 539 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 2,695 円 of net incomes.
