Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $ 219,990 to pay you $ 2,800,001. In other words, every time you spend $ 10 of your hard-earned money, $ 2.55 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
23.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 17.7% tax rate now rises to 23.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 2,800,001 a year living in Taiwan, you will be taxed $ 494,515. That means that your net pay will be $ 2,305,486 per year, or $ 192,124 per month. Your average tax rate is 17.7% and your marginal tax rate is 30.0%. 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 $ 30, hence, your net pay will only increase by $ 70.
