Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 2,148 to pay you € 14,040. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 2.88 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
25.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 13.5% tax rate now rises to 25.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 14,040 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 1,897. That means that your net pay will be € 12,143 per year, or € 1,012 per month. Your average tax rate is 13.5% and your marginal tax rate is 22.2%. 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 € 22.15, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 77.85.
