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 262,394,080 BHD a year living in Bahrain, you will be taxed 2,627,301 BHD. That means that your net pay will be 259,766,779 BHD per year, or 21,647,232 BHD per month. Your average tax rate is 1.0% and your marginal tax rate is 1.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
