Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer S$377 to pay you S$2,216. In other words, every time you spend S$10 of your hard-earned money, S$3.75 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
32.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.5% tax rate now rises to 32.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make S$26,592 a year living in Singapore, you will be taxed S$5,445. That means that your net pay will be S$21,147 per year, or S$1,762 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.5% and your marginal tax rate is 22.2%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of S$100 in your salary will be taxed S$22.16, hence, your net pay will only increase by S$77.84.
Bonus Example
A S$1,000 bonus will generate an extra S$778 of net incomes. A S$5,000 bonus will generate an extra S$3,892 of net incomes.
