Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 2,387 to pay you € 15,600. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 2.97 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
25.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 14.4% tax rate now rises to 25.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 15,600 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 2,248. That means that your net pay will be € 13,352 per year, or € 1,113 per month. Your average tax rate is 14.4% and your marginal tax rate is 23.2%. 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 € 23.15, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 76.85.
