Summary
If you make E£ 72,996 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 13,148. That means that your net pay will be E£ 59,848 per year, or E£ 4,987 per month. Your average tax rate is 18.0% and your marginal tax rate is 28.8%. 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£ 28.80, hence, your net pay will only increase by E£ 71.20.
Bonus Example
A E£ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 712 of net incomes. A E£ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 3,560 of net incomes.
