Total tax paid
€ 689
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 323 to pay you € 1,435. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.80 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25.5% tax rate now rises to 39.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
