Real tax rate
39.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 32% tax rate now rises to 39.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.3% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make ₦1,350,000,000 a year living in Nigeria, you will be taxed ₦431,522,000. That means that your net pay will be ₦918,478,000 per year, or ₦76,539,833 per month. Your average tax rate is 32.0% and your marginal tax rate is 32.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of ₦100 in your salary will be taxed ₦31.98, hence, your net pay will only increase by ₦68.02.
