Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 238 to pay you € 1,055. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.53 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
37.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22.7% tax rate now rises to 37.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 14.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 12,660 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 2,880. That means that your net pay will be € 9,780 per year, or € 815 per month. Your average tax rate is 22.8% and your marginal tax rate is 33.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of € 100 in your salary will be taxed € 33.02, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 66.98.
Bonus Example
A € 1,000 bonus will generate an extra € 670 of net incomes. A € 5,000 bonus will generate an extra € 3,349 of net incomes.
