Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45.9% tax rate now rises to 46.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,629,926,736 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 747,445,690 円. That means that your net pay will be 882,481,046 円 per year, or 73,540,087 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.9% 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 46.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.89 円.
