Summary
If you make 55 116 zł a year living in Poland, you will be taxed 14 822 zł. That means that your net pay will be 40 294 zł per year, or 3 358 zł per month. Your average tax rate is 26.9% and your marginal tax rate is 36.1%. 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 36.14 zł, hence, your net pay will only increase by 63.86 zł.
