🇩🇯 Djibouti
Djibouti taxes salaries through the ITS (impot sur les traitements et salaires), a monthly 5-band scale from 2% to 30% (CGI art. 15). Monthly taxable pay not exceeding 50,000 FDJ is fully exempt; above that threshold the scale applies from the first franc (art. 4). The base is gross pay minus employee contributions, deductible under art. 6: CNSS pension 4% and AMO health 2%, both uncapped. No professional abatement and no family adjustment (art. 12). The Djibouti franc has been pegged to the US dollar at 177.721 FDJ since 1973.

What the calculation reproduces, what it does not model
Rounding of the base down to the lower 5,000 FDJ multiple (art. 14) is not modelled, which slightly overstates the tax (at most 1,500 FDJ per month at the top rate). The 50,000 FDJ exemption threshold applies to taxable pay after contributions and is modelled here through its gross equivalent. The flat 15% rule for engagements shorter than one month (art. 16) is not covered. Confirm with the Direction Generale des Impots.
Tax system in Djibouti
Djibouti taxes salaries through the ITS, a monthly scale from 2% to 30%. Monthly taxable pay up to 50,000 FDJ is fully exempt; above that threshold the scale applies from the first franc. Employee CNSS pension (4%) and AMO health (2%) contributions deduct from the base. The Djibouti franc has been pegged to the US dollar at 177.721 FDJ since 1973, a useful anchor for packages negotiated in foreign currency. A strategic Horn-of-Africa port, Djibouti hosts international military bases and a fast-growing logistics and port economy.
