Real tax rate
41.8%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.8% tax rate now rises to 41.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 17% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₱ 8,800 a year living in Philippines, you will be taxed ₱ 2,178. That means that your net pay will be ₱ 6,622 per year, or ₱ 552 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.8% and your marginal tax rate is 1.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
