Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 922 to pay you € 4,090. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.80 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
47.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 35.4% tax rate now rises to 47.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 49,080 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 17,396. That means that your net pay will be € 31,684 per year, or € 2,640 per month. Your average tax rate is 35.4% and your marginal tax rate is 49.8%. 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 € 49.75, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 50.25.
Bonus Example
A € 1,000 bonus will generate an extra € 503 of net incomes. A € 5,000 bonus will generate an extra € 2,513 of net incomes.
