Business Tax

Business taxation typically spans corporate income tax, local trade tax, indirect taxes on turnover, and levies on property transactions, with accounting rules shaping measurement and timing. Corporate income tax applies to net profits after allowable deductions, with loss carryforwards and group rules determining consolidation and relief. Trade tax, where applicable, is a municipal levy on business income that uses tax-specific add-backs and may be non-creditable for corporations but sometimes creditable for individual partners. Turnover taxes split into sales tax (single-stage, charged at retail) and value added tax (multi-stage, invoice-credit method), both requiring registration, compliant invoicing, and periodic returns. Property transaction taxes arise on acquisitions or transfers of real estate or certain business assets, sometimes triggered by share deals that shift effective ownership. Accounting (IFRS or local GAAP) underpins all of this—recognizing revenue and expenses on an accrual basis, driving book-tax differences, deferred taxes, and statutory obligations such as financial statements, audit, and record retention.

Income Tax for Individuals

Individual income tax generally applies to residents on worldwide income and to nonresidents on domestic-source income, typically using progressive rate bands. Taxable income aggregates employment wages, self-employment profits, investment returns (interest, dividends), capital gains, and rental income, reduced by allowances, deductions, and credits such as social security contributions, retirement savings, insurance premiums, and work-related expenses. Many systems use withholding or pay-as-you-earn for wages and require advance payments by the self-employed, with an annual return to reconcile liabilities, claim credits, and carry forward eligible losses. Preferential rates or exemptions may apply to long-term capital gains or dividends, and cross-border cases are handled through residency rules, tie-breakers, and foreign tax credits. Families may benefit from joint filing, dependent credits, or income splitting, often subject to caps and phase-outs. Compliance involves registration, proper record-keeping, and filing by statutory deadlines, with interest and penalties for late, underpaid, or inaccurate returns.

Inheritance, Wealth and Property Tax

Estate tax is a levy on the decedent’s taxable estate at death—computed on the gross estate minus allowable deductions (e.g., debts, funeral, charitable, marital)—and applied before assets pass to heirs. Inheritance (and gift) tax, by contrast, taxes the recipients (or lifetime donors) on transfers without consideration, typically using fair market value minus allowances, with rates that often vary by relationship and amount. Many systems coordinate estate or inheritance tax with a gift tax to capture lifetime transfers and prevent avoidance around the time of death. Wealth tax is an annual charge on a person’s or entity’s net assets—assets minus liabilities—above a defined threshold. Property tax is a recurring local tax on the ownership of land and buildings, based on the assessed value multiplied by a local rate. Broadly, estate/inheritance (and gift) taxes are event-based transfer taxes, whereas wealth and property taxes are periodic; specific exemptions, valuation rules, and reliefs are jurisdiction-dependent and materially affect outcomes.
