Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 3,348 to pay you € 21,880. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 3.29 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
28.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 17.6% tax rate now rises to 28.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 21,880 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 3,848. That means that your net pay will be € 18,032 per year, or € 1,503 per month. Your average tax rate is 17.6% and your marginal tax rate is 28.4%. 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 € 28.39, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 71.61.
