Summary
If you make 131 040 zł a year living in Poland, you will be taxed 42 265 zł. That means that your net pay will be 88 775 zł per year, or 7 398 zł per month. Your average tax rate is 32.3% and your marginal tax rate is 36.2%. 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 36.15 zł, hence, your net pay will only increase by 63.85 zł.
