Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 33,837 kr to pay you 239,980 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 2.90 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
25.4%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 14.9% tax rate now rises to 25.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 239,980 kr a year living in Norway, you will be taxed 35,836 kr. That means that your net pay will be 204,144 kr per year, or 17,012 kr per month. Your average tax rate is 14.9% and your marginal tax rate is 30.1%. 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 30.06 kr, hence, your net pay will only increase by 69.94 kr.
