Real tax rate

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.
Summary
If you make € 20,328 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 5,417. That means that your net pay will be € 14,911 per year, or € 1,243 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.7% and your marginal tax rate is 34.8%. 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 € 34.78, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 65.22.
