Real tax rate
43.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 31% tax rate now rises to 43.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 35,028 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 10,875. That means that your net pay will be € 24,153 per year, or € 2,013 per month. Your average tax rate is 31.1% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. 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 € 45.04, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 54.96.
