Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 4,524 to pay you € 174,000. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.57 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
64.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 63.1% tax rate now rises to 64.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.99999999999999% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make € 45,240,000 a year living in Finland, you will be taxed € 28,568,240. That means that your net pay will be € 16,671,760 per year, or € 1,389,313 per month. Your average tax rate is 63.2% and your marginal tax rate is 63.2%. 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 € 63.18, hence, your net pay will only increase by € 36.82.
