Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 6,500 to pay you € 42,484. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.33 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
37.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 28% tax rate now rises to 37.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 42,484 a year living in Luxembourg, you will be taxed € 11,901. That means that your net pay will be € 30,583 per year, or € 2,549 per month. Your average tax rate is 28.0% and your marginal tax rate is 50.5%. 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 € 50.51, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 49.49.
