Real tax rate
38.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.6% tax rate now rises to 38.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 15,432 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 3,795. That means that your net pay will be € 11,637 per year, or € 970 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.6% 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 € 33.01, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 66.99.
Bonus Example
A € 1,000 bonus will generate an extra € 670 of net incomes. A € 5,000 bonus will generate an extra € 3,350 of net incomes.
