Total tax paid
€ 4 454
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 984 to pay you € 8 905. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
45.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 39% tax rate now rises to 45.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6% higher than what it seemed at first.
