Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 13,922 kr to pay you 128,500 kr. In other words, every time you spend 10 kr of your hard-earned money, 4.35 kr goes to the government.
Real tax rate
39.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 32.7% tax rate now rises to 39.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 6.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 128,500 kr a year living in the region of Odder, Denmark, you will be taxed 41,962 kr. That means that your net pay will be 86,538 kr per year, or 7,211 kr per month.
