Real tax rate

Summary
If you make 159,780 LL a year living in Lebanon, you will be taxed 11,185 LL. That means that your net pay will be 148,595 LL per year, or 12,383 LL per month. Your average tax rate is 7.0% and your marginal tax rate is 7.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
