Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer E£ 881 to pay you E£ 6,636. In other words, every time you spend E£ 10 of your hard-earned money, E£ 3.46 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
30.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.3% tax rate now rises to 30.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make E£ 159,264 a year living in Egypt, you will be taxed E£ 33,904. That means that your net pay will be E£ 125,360 per year, or E£ 10,447 per month. Your average tax rate is 21.3% and your marginal tax rate is 20.0%. 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£ 20, hence, your net pay will only increase by E£ 80.
Bonus Example
A E£ 1,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 800 of net incomes. A E£ 5,000 bonus will generate an extra E£ 4,000 of net incomes.
