🇪🇹 Ethiopia
Ethiopia taxes employment income through Schedule A of the Federal Income Tax Proclamation, a six-band monthly scale from 0% to 35% (Income Tax (Amendment) Proclamation No. 1395/2025, in force July 2025), shown here annualised. The 2025 reform raised the monthly exemption from 600 to 2,000 birr, set the lowest rate at 15%, and applies the top 35% rate above 14,000 birr per month. The tax applies to gross employment income with no standard deduction. The mandatory employee contribution is the private-sector pension at 7% of salary, on an insurable ceiling of 15,000 birr per month, which is not deducted from the tax base.
