Global Tax Rates
The map below shows the effective tax rate for an individual at a representative middle-income salary and a family size of four. The effective tax rate includes social security and income tax on employment income, computed as total tax and social security divided by gross income. The rate may not be the highest marginal tax rate, and is impacted by tax deductions and personal allowances that reduce taxable income for that tax jurisdiction.
The higher the effective tax rate, the more the individual’s tax burden and the lower the individual has for net take home pay after tax.
