Total tax paid
1.84 KWD
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 0.96 KWD to pay you 8 KWD. In other words, every time you spend 10 KWD of your hard-earned money, 2.30 KWD goes to the government.
Real tax rate
20.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 11% tax rate now rises to 20.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 9.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
