Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer E£ 1,271 to pay you E£ 6,779. In other words, every time you spend E£ 10 of your hard-earned money, E£ 3.79 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
31.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 19.1% tax rate now rises to 31.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make E£ 81,348 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 15,553. That means that your net pay will be E£ 65,795 per year, or E£ 5,483 per month. Your average tax rate is 19.1% 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.
