Total tax paid
€ 833
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 382 to pay you € 1,694. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 4.92 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
40.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 26.6% tax rate now rises to 40.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
