Summary
If you make E£ 55,500 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 8,681. That means that your net pay will be E£ 46,819 per year, or E£ 3,902 per month. Your average tax rate is 15.6% and your marginal tax rate is 23.5%. 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£ 23.48, hence, your net pay will only increase by E£ 76.52.
