So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 1% tax rate now rises to 2.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 19,139,616 BHD a year living in Bahrain, you will be taxed 194,756 BHD. That means that your net pay will be 18,944,860 BHD per year, or 1,578,738 BHD per month.
