Total tax paid
€ 1 719
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 403 to pay you € 3 647. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.71 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
42.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 36.1% tax rate now rises to 42.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
