|
|
So most of the discussions on these boards refer to the typical 3.3% income tax you have to pay. but I haven't seen many discussions about residency tax that I read was about 10% of the salary a month.
Can someone explain this to me as its in my contract and I havent been able to find a topic about it here or even searching google. |

Its 10% of your tax, not your income. |

3% income tax and 0.3% for your resident tax (total of 3.3%).
Not going to get into the overtaxed issue (employee vs employee called a subcontractor).
