Total tax paid
1.68 BHD
Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1.04 BHD to pay you 8 BHD. In other words, every time you spend 10 BHD of your hard-earned money, 2.10 BHD goes to the government.
Real tax rate
18.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 8% tax rate now rises to 18.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
