Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 1,100 to pay you € 4,879. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.06 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
49.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 38.1% tax rate now rises to 49.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 58,548 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 22,291. That means that your net pay will be € 36,257 per year, or € 3,021 per month. Your average tax rate is 38.1% and your marginal tax rate is 51.9%. 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 € 51.90, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 48.10.
Bonus Example
A € 1,000 bonus will generate an extra € 481 of net incomes. A € 5,000 bonus will generate an extra € 2,405 of net incomes.
