Real tax rate
16.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 16.8% tax rate now rises to 16.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.099999999999998% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 10,439,988 a year living in Hong Kong, you will be taxed $ 1,749,298. That means that your net pay will be $ 8,690,690 per year, or $ 724,224 per month. Your average tax rate is 16.8% 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.
