Total tax paid
€ 3 424
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 803 to pay you € 7 271. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.71 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
42.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 36% tax rate now rises to 42.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
