Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 647 BHD to pay you 16,651 BHD. In other words, every time you spend 10 BHD of your hard-earned money, 0.66 BHD goes to the government.
Real tax rate
6.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 2.7% tax rate now rises to 6.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 199,812 BHD a year living in Bahrain, you will be taxed 5,358 BHD. That means that your net pay will be 194,454 BHD per year, or 16,204 BHD per month. Your average tax rate is 2.7% and your marginal tax rate is 1.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 BHD in your salary will be taxed 1 BHD, hence, your net pay will only increase by 99 BHD.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 BHD bonus will generate an extra 990 BHD of net incomes. A 5,000 BHD bonus will generate an extra 4,950 BHD of net incomes.
