Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer 1,500 OMR to pay you 12,000 OMR. In other words, every time you spend 10 OMR of your hard-earned money, 2.05 OMR goes to the government.
Real tax rate
18.2%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 8% tax rate now rises to 18.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 10.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 12,000 OMR a year living in Oman, you will be taxed 960 OMR. That means that your net pay will be 11,040 OMR per year, or 920 OMR per month. Your average tax rate is 8.0% and your marginal tax rate is 8.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of 100 OMR in your salary will be taxed 8 OMR, hence, your net pay will only increase by 92 OMR.
Bonus Example
A 1,000 OMR bonus will generate an extra 920 OMR of net incomes. A 5,000 OMR bonus will generate an extra 4,600 OMR of net incomes.
