Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 31.34 lei to pay you 1,393 lei. In other words, every time you spend 10 lei of your hard-earned money, 4.38 lei goes to the government.
Real tax rate
42.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41.5% tax rate now rises to 42.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 16,716 lei a year living in Romania, you will be taxed 6,937 lei. That means that your net pay will be 9,779 lei per year, or 815 lei per month. Your average tax rate is 41.5% and your marginal tax rate is 41.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 lei in your salary will be taxed 41.50 lei, hence, your net pay will only increase by 58.50 lei.
Bonus Example
