Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 40.8% tax rate now rises to 47.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make RM 35,519,900 a year living in Malaysia, you will be taxed RM 14,477,372. That means that your net pay will be RM 21,042,528 per year, or RM 1,753,544 per month. Your average tax rate is 40.8% and your marginal tax rate is 41.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
