Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 140 to pay you € 1 588. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 1.34 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
12.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 4.6% tax rate now rises to 12.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 19 056 a year living in Ireland, you will be taxed € 876. That means that your net pay will be € 18 180 per year, or € 1 515 per month. Your average tax rate is 4.6% and your marginal tax rate is 42.7%. 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 € 42.70, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 57.30.
