Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 5 498 kr to pay you 17 498 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 6.01 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
45.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 28.7% tax rate now rises to 45.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 17% higher than what it seemed at first.
