Summary
If you make 19,020 SAR a year living in Saudi Arabia, you will be taxed 1,386 SAR. That means that your net pay will be 17,634 SAR per year, or 1,469 SAR per month. Your average tax rate is 7.3% 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.
