Total tax paid
€ 1 572
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 469 to pay you € 4 246. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 3.70 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
33.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26% tax rate now rises to 33.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
