Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $ 15,823 to pay you $ 133,334. In other words, every time you spend $ 10 of your hard-earned money, $ 2.55 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
22.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 13.6% tax rate now rises to 22.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 1,600,008 a year living in Taiwan, you will be taxed $ 217,459. That means that your net pay will be $ 1,382,549 per year, or $ 115,212 per month. Your average tax rate is 13.6% and your marginal tax rate is 21.6%. 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 $ 21.56, hence, your net pay will only increase by $ 78.44.
Bonus Example
A $ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra $ 784 of net incomes. A $ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra $ 3,922 of net incomes.
