Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1,231,204 QAR to pay you 12,312,040 QAR. In other words, every time you spend 10 QAR of your hard-earned money, 1.50 QAR goes to the government.
Real tax rate
13.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 5% tax rate now rises to 13.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 8.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 147,744,480 QAR a year living in Qatar, you will be taxed 7,387,224 QAR. That means that your net pay will be 140,357,256 QAR per year, or 11,696,438 QAR per month. Your average tax rate is 5.0% and your marginal tax rate is 5.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 QAR in your salary will be taxed 5 QAR, hence, your net pay will only increase by 95 QAR.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 QAR bonus will generate an extra 950 QAR of net incomes. A 5,000 QAR bonus will generate an extra 4,750 QAR of net incomes.
