Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 4,936 SAR to pay you 41,132 SAR. In other words, every time you spend 10 SAR of your hard-earned money, 2.20 SAR goes to the government.
Real tax rate
19.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 10% tax rate now rises to 19.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 493,584 SAR a year living in Saudi Arabia, you will be taxed 49,358 SAR. That means that your net pay will be 444,226 SAR per year, or 37,019 SAR per month. Your average tax rate is 10.0% and your marginal tax rate is 10.0%. 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 10 SAR, hence, your net pay will only increase by 90 SAR.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 SAR bonus will generate an extra 900 SAR of net incomes. A 5,000 SAR bonus will generate an extra 4,500 SAR of net incomes.
