Real tax rate

Summary
If you make CHF 10'300 a year living in the region of Luzern, Switzerland, you will be taxed CHF 750. That means that your net pay will be CHF 9'550 per year, or CHF 796 per month. Your average tax rate is 7.3% and your marginal tax rate is 6.8%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
