Real tax rate
16.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 16.5% tax rate now rises to 16.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $ 4,800,016 a year living in Hong Kong, you will be taxed $ 790,503. That means that your net pay will be $ 4,009,513 per year, or $ 334,126 per month. Your average tax rate is 16.5% 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.
