Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
There is no personal income tax on employment income. The figure above assumes a Saudi national and deducts the 9.75% GOSI share; expatriate employees pay no employee GOSI, so their net equals gross. Housing, private schooling and leisure are the real costs, and they are rising as the city expands.
Prague, Czechia
Income tax is a flat 15% up to a high threshold and 23% above it, with social and health contributions deducted on top. Rents have climbed quickly in the centre, but public transport and everyday costs remain low, so take-home pay stretches further than in western Europe.
