Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 38% tax rate now rises to 45.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make RM 2,831,868 a year living in Malaysia, you will be taxed RM 1,074,952. That means that your net pay will be RM 1,756,916 per year, or RM 146,410 per month. Your average tax rate is 38.0% and your marginal tax rate is 41.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of RM 100 in your salary will be taxed RM 41, hence, your net pay will only increase by RM 59.
