Summary
If you make CHF 13'200 a year living in the region of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Switzerland, you will be taxed CHF 914. That means that your net pay will be CHF 12'286 per year, or CHF 1'024 per month. Your average tax rate is 6.9% and your marginal tax rate is 10.4%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
