Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer Rp. 2,283 to pay you Rp. 20,750. In other words, every time you spend Rp. 10 of your hard-earned money, Rp. 1.98 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
17.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 8.8% tax rate now rises to 17.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make Rp. 249,000 a year living in Indonesia, you will be taxed Rp. 21,912. That means that your net pay will be Rp. 227,088 per year, or Rp. 18,924 per month. Your average tax rate is 8.8% and your marginal tax rate is 8.8%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of Rp. 100 in your salary will be taxed Rp. 8.80, hence, your net pay will only increase by Rp. 91.20.
Bonus Example
A Rp. 1,000 bonus will generate an extra Rp. 912 of net incomes. A Rp. 5,000 bonus will generate an extra Rp. 4,560 of net incomes.
