Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 890 to pay you € 3,948. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.75 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 34.9% tax rate now rises to 46.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 47,376 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 16,548. That means that your net pay will be € 30,828 per year, or € 2,569 per month. Your average tax rate is 34.9% and your marginal tax rate is 49.7%. 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 € 49.74, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 50.26.
