Total tax paid
€ 4,657
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 885 to pay you € 8,164. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.70 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
51.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 46.2% tax rate now rises to 51.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
