Real tax rate
42.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41% tax rate now rises to 42.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 79,824,160 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 32,737,337 円. That means that your net pay will be 47,086,823 円 per year, or 3,923,902 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 41.0% 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.
