Total tax paid
€ 2,278
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 893 to pay you € 3,961. 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 35% tax rate now rises to 46.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
