Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer RM 104 to pay you RM 567. In other words, every time you spend RM 10 of your hard-earned money, RM 3.31 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
28.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 14.8% tax rate now rises to 28.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make RM 567 a year living in Malaysia, you will be taxed RM 83.79. That means that your net pay will be RM 483 per year, or RM 40.27 per month. Your average tax rate is 14.8% and your marginal tax rate is 10.8%. 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 10.83, hence, your net pay will only increase by RM 89.17.
Bonus Example
A RM 1,000 bonus will generate an extra RM 892 of net incomes. A RM 5,000 bonus will generate an extra RM 4,459 of net incomes.
