Total tax paid
€ 17,102
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 700 to pay you € 26,910. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.36 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
61.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 61% tax rate now rises to 61.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
