Real tax rate

Summary
If you make E£ 29,220 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 3,560. That means that your net pay will be E£ 25,660 per year, or E£ 2,138 per month. Your average tax rate is 12.2% and your marginal tax rate is 14.6%. 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£ 14.60, hence, your net pay will only increase by E£ 85.40.
Bonus Example
A E£ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 854 of net incomes. A E£ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 4,270 of net incomes.
