So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 0.3% tax rate now rises to 0.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.4% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 17,083 SAR a year living in Saudi Arabia, you will be taxed 56.96 SAR. That means that your net pay will be 17,026 SAR per year, or 1,419 SAR per month. Your average tax rate is 0.3% and your marginal tax rate is 68.6%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 SAR in your salary will be taxed 68.62 SAR, hence, your net pay will only increase by 31.38 SAR.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 SAR bonus will generate an extra 314 SAR of net incomes. A 5,000 SAR bonus will generate an extra 1,569 SAR of net incomes.
