Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 84.80 TL to pay you 1,990 TL. In other words, every time you spend 10 TL of your hard-earned money, 4.59 TL goes to the government.
Real tax rate
44.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 41.6% tax rate now rises to 44.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 4,139,200 TL a year living in Turkey, you will be taxed 1,721,915 TL. That means that your net pay will be 2,417,285 TL per year, or 201,440 TL per month. Your average tax rate is 41.6% 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
A 1,000 TL bonus will generate an extra 582 TL of net incomes. A 5,000 TL bonus will generate an extra 2,912 TL of net incomes.
