Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 108 to pay you € 479. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 5.07 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 28.1% tax rate now rises to 41.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 24,908 a year living in Greece, you will be taxed € 7,010. That means that your net pay will be € 17,898 per year, or € 1,492 per month. Your average tax rate is 28.1% and your marginal tax rate is 35.1%. 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 € 35.05, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 64.95.
Bonus Example
A € 1,000 bonus will generate an extra € 650 of net incomes. A € 5,000 bonus will generate an extra € 3,248 of net incomes.
