Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 1,465 to pay you € 7,310. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.18 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
51.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41.8% tax rate now rises to 51.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 87,720 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 36,664. That means that your net pay will be € 51,056 per year, or € 4,255 per month. Your average tax rate is 41.8% and your marginal tax rate is 44.0%. 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 € 44, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 56.
Bonus Example
A € 1,000 bonus will generate an extra € 560 of net incomes. A € 5,000 bonus will generate an extra € 2,800 of net incomes.
