Total tax paid
€ 790
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 364 to pay you € 1,617. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.89 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.3% tax rate now rises to 39.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
