Summary
If you make E£ 19,824 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 1,814. That means that your net pay will be E£ 18,010 per year, or E£ 1,501 per month. Your average tax rate is 9.2% 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.
