Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 146,640 kr to pay you 1,040,000 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 4.74 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
41.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33.3% tax rate now rises to 41.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 1,040,000 kr a year living in Norway, you will be taxed 346,565 kr. That means that your net pay will be 693,435 kr per year, or 57,786 kr per month. Your average tax rate is 33.3% and your marginal tax rate is 46.4%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 kr in your salary will be taxed 46.40 kr, hence, your net pay will only increase by 53.60 kr.
