Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 12,087 to pay you € 79,000. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.53 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
47.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 40% tax rate now rises to 47.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 79,000 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 31,583. That means that your net pay will be € 47,417 per year, or € 3,951 per month. Your average tax rate is 40.0% and your marginal tax rate is 54.2%. 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 € 54.19, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 45.81.
