Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 37 952 zł to pay you 215 000 zł. In other words, every time you spend 10 zł of your hard-earned money, 5.48 zł goes to the government.
Real tax rate
46.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 37.2% tax rate now rises to 46.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 215 000 zł a year living in Poland, you will be taxed 79 960 zł. That means that your net pay will be 135 040 zł per year, or 11 253 zł per month. Your average tax rate is 37.2% and your marginal tax rate is 42.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 zł in your salary will be taxed 42.45 zł, hence, your net pay will only increase by 57.55 zł.
