Summary
If you make 16,120,000 LL a year living in Lebanon, you will be taxed 1,342,000 LL. That means that your net pay will be 14,778,000 LL per year, or 1,231,500 LL per month. Your average tax rate is 8.3% and your marginal tax rate is 10.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
