Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $ 106 to pay you $ 2,557. In other words, every time you spend $ 10 of your hard-earned money, $ 2.91 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
27.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25% tax rate now rises to 27.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 5,318,560 a year living in Taiwan, you will be taxed $ 1,327,741. That means that your net pay will be $ 3,990,819 per year, or $ 332,568 per month. Your average tax rate is 25.0% and your marginal tax rate is 38.7%. 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 $ 38.65, hence, your net pay will only increase by $ 61.35.
