Total tax paid
€ 4,693
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 2,410 to pay you € 15,750. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 2.98 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
25.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 14.5% tax rate now rises to 25.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
