Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer E£ 5.94 to pay you E£ 1,020. In other words, every time you spend E£ 10 of your hard-earned money, E£ 0.09 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
0.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 0.4% tax rate now rises to 0.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make E£ 12,240 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 44.34. That means that your net pay will be E£ 12,196 per year, or E£ 1,016 per month. Your average tax rate is 0.4% and your marginal tax rate is 23.3%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of E£ 100 in your salary will be taxed E£ 23.34, hence, your net pay will only increase by E£ 76.66.
