Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 52% tax rate now rises to 56.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 36 992 736 a year living in Ireland, you will be taxed € 19 222 299. That means that your net pay will be € 17 770 437 per year, or € 1 480 870 per month. Your average tax rate is 52.0% and your marginal tax rate is 52.0%. 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 € 52, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 48.
Bonus Example
A € 1 000 bonus will generate an extra € 480 of net incomes. A € 5 000 bonus will generate an extra € 2 400 of net incomes.
