Summary
If you make 489,000 Kč a year living in Czech Republic, you will be taxed 96,300 Kč. That means that your net pay will be 392,700 Kč per year, or 32,725 Kč per month. Your average tax rate is 19.7% and your marginal tax rate is 26.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
