Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 25,630 円 to pay you 215,080 円. In other words, every time you spend 10 円 of your hard-earned money, 3.93 円 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
35.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 27.4% tax rate now rises to 35.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 11,184,160 円 a year living in Japan, you will be taxed 3,060,365 円. That means that your net pay will be 8,123,795 円 per year, or 676,983 円 per month. Your average tax rate is 27.4% 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 37.16 円, hence, your net pay will only increase by 62.84 円.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 628 円 of net incomes. A 5,000 円 bonus will generate an extra 3,142 円 of net incomes.
