Total tax paid
€ 3 078
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 1 774 to pay you € 20 072. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 1.53 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
14.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 6.5% tax rate now rises to 14.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
