So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 7.2% tax rate now rises to 9.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make R 139 356 a year living in South Africa, you will be taxed R 10 053. That means that your net pay will be R 129 303 per year, or R 10 775 per month. Your average tax rate is 7.2% and your marginal tax rate is 19.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of R 100 in your salary will be taxed R 19, hence, your net pay will only increase by R 81.
