Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 9,000 บาท to pay you 4,800,000 บาท. In other words, every time you spend 10 บาท of your hard-earned money, 2.55 บาท goes to the government.
Real tax rate
25.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25.4% tax rate now rises to 25.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 4,800,000 บาท a year living in Thailand, you will be taxed 1,216,858 บาท. That means that your net pay will be 3,583,142 บาท per year, or 298,595 บาท per month. Your average tax rate is 25.4% and your marginal tax rate is 34.3%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 บาท in your salary will be taxed 34.28 บาท, hence, your net pay will only increase by 65.72 บาท.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 บาท bonus will generate an extra 657 บาท of net incomes. A 5,000 บาท bonus will generate an extra 3,286 บาท of net incomes.
