€ 18 607
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 3 464 to pay you € 31 352. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.93 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
53.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 48.3% tax rate now rises to 53.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
