Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 126 TL to pay you 616 TL. In other words, every time you spend 10 TL of your hard-earned money, 5.82 TL goes to the government.
Real tax rate
48.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.7% tax rate now rises to 48.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 160,160 TL a year living in Turkey, you will be taxed 60,381 TL. That means that your net pay will be 99,779 TL per year, or 8,315 TL per month. Your average tax rate is 37.7% and your marginal tax rate is 41.8%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 TL in your salary will be taxed 41.76 TL, hence, your net pay will only increase by 58.24 TL.
Bonus Example
