🇲🇷 Mauritania
Mauritania taxes salaries through the ITS (impot sur les traitements et salaires), a monthly 3-band scale of 15%, 25% and 40% (art. 114 of the CGI, Law 2019-018). A 6,000 MRU monthly abatement (art. 110-1-c) is deducted after the mandatory employee contributions (art. 113-2-a): CNSS 1%, base capped at 15,000 MRU/month (decree 2021-186), and CNAM health 4%, uncapped. The employer withholds the tax monthly. Amounts are in new ouguiya (MRU, 2018 redenomination).

What the calculation reproduces, what it does not model
Rounding of the base down to the lower 10 MRU (art. 114-3) is not modelled. Benefits in kind (retained at 40% of real value, art. 113-1-b) and the 20% cap reserved for press and airline staff (art. 114-6) are not covered. The CNSS ceiling used is the 15,000 MRU/month of decree 2021-186, confirmed by PwC in 2026; CLEISS displays 70,000, most likely in old ouguiya. Confirm with the DGI.

Mauritania taxes salaries through the ITS, a monthly three-band scale of 15%, 25% and 40%. A 6,000 MRU monthly abatement is deducted after employee contributions: CNSS 1% (base capped at 15,000 MRU per month) and CNAM health 4%, uncapped. Amounts are in new ouguiya (MRU) from the 2018 redenomination: beware of sources still quoting old ouguiya. Nouakchott concentrates formal employment; mining, fisheries and offshore gas (GTA) drive skilled and expatriate positions.
