Real tax rate
14.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 1.6% tax rate now rises to 14.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 12.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make £13,208 a year living in United Kingdom, you will be taxed £210. That means that your net pay will be £12,998 per year, or £1,083 per month. Your average tax rate is 1.6% and your marginal tax rate is 33.3%. 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 £33.25, hence, your net pay will only increase by £66.75.
