Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $ 69.23 to pay you $ 605,000. In other words, every time you spend $ 10 of your hard-earned money, $ 1.70 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
17.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 17% tax rate now rises to 17.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 157,300,000 a year living in Hong Kong, you will be taxed $ 26,715,500. That means that your net pay will be $ 130,584,500 per year, or $ 10,882,042 per month. Your average tax rate is 17.0% and your marginal tax rate is 17.0%. 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 $ 17, hence, your net pay will only increase by $ 83.
