Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.2% tax rate now rises to 27.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make E£ 256,752 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 54,510. That means that your net pay will be E£ 202,242 per year, or E£ 16,853 per month. Your average tax rate is 21.2% and your marginal tax rate is 22.5%. 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£ 22.50, hence, your net pay will only increase by E£ 77.50.
Bonus Example
A E£ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 775 of net incomes. A E£ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 3,875 of net incomes.
