Revision as of 18:23, 12 January 2011

Comparison of tax rates around the world is difficult and somewhat subjective. Tax laws in most countries are extremely complex, and tax burden falls differently on different groups in each country and sub-national unit. The lists below give an indication by rank of some raw indicators.

Denmark is the most taxed country in the world with a tax-to-GDP ratio of 48.9%.[1]

Graphs

Income Tax rates by Country based on OECD 2005 data.[2]

List

This is a list of tax rates around the world. It focuses on three types of taxes: corporate taxes, individual taxes and sales taxes (value added taxes (VAT) / goods and services taxes (GST) / sales). Some other taxes (for instance property tax, substantial in many countries, such as USA) are not shown here. The table is not intended to represent the true tax burden to either the corporation or the individual in the listed country. Note that no distinction is made between "true" taxes, that pay for the government's general budget, and fees paid for specific social benefits such as health insurance or retirement pay. The way these benefits are paid vary by country, and the benefits paid for also vary by country.
