Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 21,237 to pay you € 1,534,000. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.84 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
47.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 47.1% tax rate now rises to 47.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 1,534,000 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 721,775. That means that your net pay will be € 812,225 per year, or € 67,685 per month. Your average tax rate is 47.1% and your marginal tax rate is 47.2%. 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 € 47.18, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 52.82.
