Real tax rate
45.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.3% tax rate now rises to 45.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 66,552 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 24,838. That means that your net pay will be € 41,714 per year, or € 3,476 per month. Your average tax rate is 37.3% 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.
