Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 13,922 kr to pay you 29,000 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 8.10 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
54.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33% tax rate now rises to 54.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 21.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 29,000 kr a year living in the region of Billund, Denmark, you will be taxed 9,567 kr. That means that your net pay will be 19,433 kr per year, or 1,619 kr per month.
