Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 3,897 LL to pay you 17,320 LL. In other words, every time you spend 10 LL of your hard-earned money, 2.95 LL goes to the government.
Real tax rate
24.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7% tax rate now rises to 24.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 17.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 17,320 LL a year living in Lebanon, you will be taxed 1,212 LL. That means that your net pay will be 16,108 LL per year, or 1,342 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. For instance, an increase of 100 LL in your salary will be taxed 7 LL, hence, your net pay will only increase by 93 LL.
