Real tax rate
16.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 16.3% tax rate now rises to 16.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,470,000 บาท a year living in Thailand, you will be taxed 239,250 บาท. That means that your net pay will be 1,230,750 บาท per year, or 102,563 บาท per month. Your average tax rate is 16.3% and your marginal tax rate is 25.0%. 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 25 บาท, hence, your net pay will only increase by 75 บาท.
Bonus Example
