Tax brackets
Tax brackets are one of the cornerstones of modern tax systems, directly influencing everyone’s contribution to public finances. This article explores this essential tax mechanism in detail.
How to calculate your income tax?
Let’s take a concrete example for a single person with a taxable income of €35,000:
- First bracket (0%): €0 tax on the first €11,294
- Second bracket (11%): (28,797 – 11,294) × 11% = €1,925
- Third tranche (30%): (35,000 – 28,797) × 30% = €1,861
- Total: €1,925 + €1,861 = €3,786 in tax
Family quota: how to divide your tax bill?
The number of units allows you to adapt your tax to your family situation:
- Single: 1 part
- Married or civil union couple: 2 shares
- Per child: +0.5 part (+1 part from 3rd child)
- Single parent: +0.5 additional share
The discount: an advantage for modest incomes
If your gross tax bill does not exceed €1,929 (single) or €3,191 (couple), you automatically qualify for a reduction. The calculation is as follows
- Single: (€873 – gross tax) × 45.25%.
- Couple: (€1,444 – gross tax) × 45.25
High-income tax: additional brackets
An additional levy applies to high incomes:
- Single: 3% between €250,000 and €500,000, 4% above that amount
- Couple: 3% between €500,000 and €1,000,000, 4% above that amount
