Total tax paid
€ 3 790
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 868 to pay you € 7 851. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.83 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
43.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.2% tax rate now rises to 43.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
