Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 9.2% tax rate now rises to 21.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make CHF 996 a year living in the region of Zurich, Switzerland, you will be taxed CHF 91.76. That means that your net pay will be CHF 904 per year, or CHF 75.35 per month. Your average tax rate is 9.2% and your marginal tax rate is 6.8%. 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 6.77, hence, your net pay will only increase by CHF 93.23.
