Real tax rate
27.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 25.8% tax rate now rises to 27.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make $105,518 a year living in New Zealand, you will be taxed $27,208. That means that your net pay will be $78,310 per year, or $6,526 per month. Your average tax rate is 25.8% and your marginal tax rate is 34.4%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $34.4, hence, your net pay will only increase by $65.6.
