Good to know
N$3,875 a month. N$25,000 a month is N$300,000 a year: N$9,000 plus 25% of the N$150,000 above N$150,000 = N$46,500 a year.
N$100,000 a year. Above that, tax rises from 18% to a top rate of 37% on income above N$1,550,000 a year.
Not yet. Contributions to approved pension, provident and retirement annuity funds (and education policies) can be deducted first, up to N$150,000 a year, which lowers the tax.
