Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 1,646 to pay you € 10,755. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.10 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
52.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 45.7% tax rate now rises to 52.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 129,060 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 59,016. That means that your net pay will be € 70,044 per year, or € 5,837 per month. Your average tax rate is 45.7% and your marginal tax rate is 55.3%. 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 € 55.25, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 44.75.
