Taxation in Serbia consists of the following; the standard corporate tax rate in Serbia is 15%, although some deductions might apply.[1] The standard VAT rate is 20% and the lower rate is 10%.[2] Income from dividends is a subject to a 15% tax.[3] Serbia has tax treaties with most countries in, but few outside, Europe.[4]
The standard personal tax rate is 10%. If the individual earns more than 3 times average salary, an additional tax rate of 10% is applied. For a person earning six times the average salary, an additional 15% is applied on top of the previously described taxes. It must be clear that all the tax rates described are cumulatively applied, one on top of the other.[3]
Obligatory contributions for state funds by an employee (up to a certain amount) include:[5]
- 14% state pension fund
- 5.15% state health fund
- 0.75% unemployment insurance
Obligatory contributions for state funds by an employer (also capped) include:
- 12% state pension fund
- 5.15% state health fund
- 0.00% unemployment insurance
The effective personal income tax rate is therefore somewhere in the range 20–41%.[6] Capital gains are not subject to personal income tax.
