Total tax paid
€ 37 426
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 6 763 to pay you € 61 200. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.12 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
55.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 50.1% tax rate now rises to 55.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5% higher than what it seemed at first.
