Real tax rate

Summary
If you make CHF 38'324 a year living in the region of Uri, Switzerland, you will be taxed CHF 5'952. That means that your net pay will be CHF 32'372 per year, or CHF 2'698 per month. Your average tax rate is 15.5% and your marginal tax rate is 25.4%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
