Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1,382 kr to pay you 9,800 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 3.90 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
34.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 24.9% tax rate now rises to 34.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 509,600 kr a year living in Norway, you will be taxed 126,862 kr. That means that your net pay will be 382,738 kr per year, or 31,895 kr per month. Your average tax rate is 24.9% and your marginal tax rate is 34.0%. 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 34 kr, hence, your net pay will only increase by 66 kr.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 kr bonus will generate an extra 660 kr of net incomes. A 5,000 kr bonus will generate an extra 3,300 kr of net incomes.
