Real tax rate

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 16,796,160,000 QAR a year living in Qatar, you will be taxed 839,808,000 QAR. That means that your net pay will be 15,956,352,000 QAR per year, or 1,329,696,000 QAR per month.
