Real tax rate
34.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 23.7% tax rate now rises to 34.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 11.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make S$70,500 a year living in Singapore, you will be taxed S$16,718. That means that your net pay will be S$53,782 per year, or S$4,482 per month. Your average tax rate is 23.7% and your marginal tax rate is 15.2%. 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$15.16, hence, your net pay will only increase by S$84.84.
