Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $ 213 to pay you $ 4,266. In other words, every time you spend $ 10 of your hard-earned money, $ 1 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
9.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 5% tax rate now rises to 9.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 102,384 a year living in Hong Kong, you will be taxed $ 5,119. That means that your net pay will be $ 97,265 per year, or $ 8,105 per month. Your average tax rate is 5.0% and your marginal tax rate is 5.0%. 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 $ 5, hence, your net pay will only increase by $ 95.
Bonus Example
A $ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra $ 950 of net incomes. A $ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra $ 4,750 of net incomes.
