Total tax paid
€ 1,322
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 394 to pay you € 2,576. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.13 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 36% tax rate now rises to 44.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
