About this data
Estimates correspond to the combined rates for central and sub-central government levels (i.e. central government corporate tax rate, less deductions for sub-national taxes, plus sub-central corporate tax rate). Figures correspond to the standard rate that is not targeted at particular industries or income types. The top marginal rate is reported if the corporate tax system is progressive.
