      Denmark has a system called Topskat, or “High-tax”. For any income above approx. 80.000 Euros per year, you pay 15% extra income tax, but you cannot go higher than 55.9% total. In 2026 there are plans to implement a “High-high tax” of another 5% on top for the highest of earners.

      In Hungary the full personal tax is 33,8% and the VAT is the world record 27%.

      The highest rate of income tax in Ireland is 40% so the graphic is wrong

      UK has a lovely effective 62% bracket, too (40% income tax + 2% National Insurance + 20% Personal Allowance phaseout). Only from £100k to about £125k, though

      Edit: forgot that 45% income starts just after the personal allowance phaseout, so it’s only 62% marginal

      In Romania there is a 10% tax . However we also have pensions, health insurance and it adds up to 41.5%

      Extremely missleading by putting ‘Personaal Income Tax Rates’ in huge bold text making it seem like this is what people pay in general when that’s not even remotely true.

      In Ukraine personal income tax rate is 18% also there is a military tax of 1.5%. So 19.5 is combination of those two taxes.

      In Switzerland people tend to think that taxes are high because they don’t deduct them from your salary like in other countries.

      So you receive a bill of say, 10k to pay in 30 days and at the same time another bill for about the same amount to pay in advance for the following year.

      This makes you feel that taxes are higher than they actually are.

      Typical confusion around marginal verses effective tax rates. Also, the real question to ask is *what do you get for it?* Yeah, my “taxes” in the United States are a lot lower until you factor in how heinously we all get screwed on health care costs.

      European “democracies” should implement wealth taxes than ripping off working class on income tax. The richest don’t even pay income taxes because they hide everything in shitty tax havens like Monaco etc. It’s shame that it is still allowed.

      This chart makes me want to go live in Romania, Hungary, and Bulgaria!

      How can taxes be so little?

      People living in some provinces in Canada pay approx 55% in the top tax bracket.

      This map doesn’t say anything if you don’t know average tax rates

      Highest income tax in Poland is 32% and it applies to the surplus over 120k PLN, everything below that is at 12%.

      kind of misleading map. you have countries where your whole income is taxed with the same rate, and then you have counties where the tax rate for parts of you income is different (first few thousand are taxed lower than the next and so on).
      so even if you reach the highest band you are ending up with more money in your pocket than in a country where all of it is taxed with the same rate (or even one slightly less).

      Is the top rate of income tax in the US for California, 50.3% = 13.3% (state incl. 1% mental health) + 37% (federal)?

      Gotta love having my money stolen for having the sheer audacity of not being a leech.

    24. Retal1ator-2 on

      Useless and misleading map. First, this represents only the highest tax rate. Second, it ignores taxes that only in some countries are paid as “pension” or “health”.

      For example, in Italy we pay IRPEF tax (personal income tax) and pension taxes separately which are paid in part by the employer. In the end, the full actual tax rate is above 50% on average.

    25. Lanky_Wishbone_7221 on

      this is fake, in Romania it’s 30-40% ish. But the healthcare system sucks and so does the education and public infrastructure, salaries are low, there aren’t any government programs to help with anything really, and everything is stolen by corrupt politicians
