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 23,974,080 BHD a year living in Bahrain, you will be taxed 243,101 BHD. That means that your net pay will be 23,730,979 BHD per year, or 1,977,582 BHD per month.
