🇲🇱 Mali
Mali taxes salaries through the ITS (impot sur les traitements et salaires), a seven-band annual scale from 0% to 37% (Code General des Impots article 10, schedule of Loi 2016-010 in force since 1 July 2015 and confirmed unchanged by the tax administration in 2025). The taxable base is gross salary minus the employee INPS pension (3.6%, deductible within a 4% ceiling); the AMO health contribution (3.06%) is withheld but not deductible. The assessed tax is then reduced by two points of the effective rate (tax minus 2% of the taxable base, floored at zero, Loi 2008-002), which exempts annual incomes up to about 550,000 XOF in practice. Family charges give a percentage reduction of the tax (10% for a married taxpayer plus 2.5% per child); the figure shown is the single-filer basis. XOF (CFA Franc) is pegged to EUR at 655.957.

What the calculation reproduces, what it does not model
The barème (article 10, Loi 2016-010) has been in force since 1 July 2015: the tax administration confirmed in August 2025 that it remains unchanged (a divergent grid printed in the 2024 finance law was ruled a clerical error), and the government restated it as the reference norm in the 2026 draft budget. Modelled: the two-point effective-rate rebate of Loi 2008-002 (tax minus 2% of the base, floored at zero) and the non-deductibility of the AMO contribution. Not modelled: the family-charge reduction of the tax (10% married plus 2.5% per child, up to 35%; the figure shown is the single-filer basis), benefits in kind (taxed at 50% of real value), and the expatriate posting allowance exclusion of up to 15% for eligible foreign executives (eligible expatriates may pay less than shown). The SMIG minimum wage is exempt, which the rebate already produces automatically. For your situation, confirm with the DGI Mali.
Tax system in Mali
Mali taxes employment income through the ITS (impot sur les traitements et salaires), a seven-band annual scale from 0% to 37% (article 10 of the tax code, the Loi 2016-010 schedule in force since July 2015 and confirmed unchanged by the tax administration in 2025). The taxable base is gross salary minus the employee INPS pension (3.6%, the AMO health contribution of 3.06% is withheld but not deductible), and the assessed tax is then reduced by two points of the effective rate (Loi 2008-002), which in practice exempts annual incomes up to about 550,000 XOF. Family charges reduce the tax by a percentage (single-filer basis shown). Bamako is the capital and the main employment centre for expatriate professionals in the country.
