Total tax paid
1 000 kr
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 765 kr to pay you 2 434 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 4.11 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
31.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 9.7% tax rate now rises to 31.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 21.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
