Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 119,471 円 to pay you 1,083,934 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 3.98 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
35.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 28.7% tax rate now rises to 35.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 13,007,208 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 3,737,704 円. That means that your net pay will be 9,269,504 円 per year, or 772,459 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 28.7% 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.
