Real tax rate
22.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11.1% tax rate now rises to 22.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 5,978 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 661. That means that your net pay will be € 5,317 per year, or € 443 per month.
