Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 310 to pay you € 2 808. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 2.73 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
24.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 16.3% tax rate now rises to 24.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 33 696 a year living in Ireland, you will be taxed € 5 490. That means that your net pay will be € 28 206 per year, or € 2 350 per month. Your average tax rate is 16.3% and your marginal tax rate is 28.5%. 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 € 28.50, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 71.50.
