Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 920,250 LL to pay you 4,550,000 LL. In other words, every time you spend 10 LL of your hard-earned money, 3.13 LL goes to the government.
Real tax rate
26.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11% tax rate now rises to 26.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 15% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 54,600,000 LL a year living in Lebanon, you will be taxed 6,020,284 LL. That means that your net pay will be 48,579,716 LL per year, or 4,048,310 LL per month. Your average tax rate is 11.0% and your marginal tax rate is 15.7%. 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 15.71 LL, hence, your net pay will only increase by 84.29 LL.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 LL bonus will generate an extra 843 LL of net incomes. A 5,000 LL bonus will generate an extra 4,215 LL of net incomes.
