Total tax paid
€ 4,417
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 1,465 to pay you € 7,074. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.24 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
51.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41.7% tax rate now rises to 51.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10% higher than what it seemed at first.
