Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 1,668 to pay you € 10,903. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 2.69 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
23.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11.6% tax rate now rises to 23.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 10,903 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 1,260. That means that your net pay will be € 9,643 per year, or € 804 per month. Your average tax rate is 11.6% and your marginal tax rate is 12.6%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of € 100 in your salary will be taxed € 12.64, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 87.36.
