Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer CHF 18'022 to pay you CHF 96'000. In other words, every time you spend CHF 10 of your hard-earned money, CHF 3.48 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
29.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 16.1% tax rate now rises to 29.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 13.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make CHF 96'000 a year living in the region of Zug, Switzerland, you will be taxed CHF 15'430. That means that your net pay will be CHF 80'570 per year, or CHF 6'714 per month. Your average tax rate is 16.1% and your marginal tax rate is 24.6%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of CHF 100 in your salary will be taxed CHF 24.56, hence, your net pay will only increase by CHF 75.44.
