Real tax rate
46.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45.7% tax rate now rises to 46.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 960,327,004 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 438,712,236 円. That means that your net pay will be 521,614,768 円 per year, or 43,467,897 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.7% 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 46.11 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.89 円.
