Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $ 346 to pay you $ 378,462. In other words, every time you spend $ 10 of your hard-earned money, $ 1.70 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
16.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 16.9% tax rate now rises to 16.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 19,680,024 a year living in Hong Kong, you will be taxed $ 3,320,104. That means that your net pay will be $ 16,359,920 per year, or $ 1,363,327 per month. Your average tax rate is 16.9% 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.
Bonus Example
A $ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra $ 830 of net incomes. A $ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra $ 4,150 of net incomes.
