Real tax rate
66.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 35.5% tax rate now rises to 66.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 30.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 15,312 kr a year living in the region of Struer, Denmark, you will be taxed 5,430 kr. That means that your net pay will be 9,882 kr per year, or 823 kr per month.
