Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 1,536 to pay you € 10,038. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 2.68 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
23.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11.5% tax rate now rises to 23.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 10,038 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 1,153. That means that your net pay will be € 8,885 per year, or € 740 per month.
