Taxes, including personal income tax, expenses and limitations are reviewed by the Government in Afghanistan periodically and typically updated each year. Not that not all tax rates and thresholds in Afghanistan change annually, alterations to tax policy to support strategic economic growth in Afghanistan mean that the certain areas may be focused on to provide specific tax relief in Afghanistan or support growth in certain areas (overseas invstment in Afghanistan for example may mean reduced non-resident income tax rates in Afghanistan for a period).
When tax policy in Afghanistan changes, the resultant tax tables also change. Tax tables in Afghanistan are simply a list of the relevent tax rates, fixed amounts and / or threholds used in the computation of tax in Afghanistan, the Afghanistan tax tables also include specific notes and guidance on the validity of scenarios (for example, qualifying criterea for specific tax relief / allowances) and notes of the calculation of phaseout of specific tax elements within each taxation group (dividends and corporation tax thresholds in Afghanistan for example).
Afghanistan Tax Tables may also be referred to as Afghanistan Tax Slabs, Afghanistan personal allowances and tax thresholds or Afghanistan business tax rates. They all refer to the tax tables, whether in whole or as specific sections/categories of the tax tables therein. In the section, we publish all 2018 tax rates and thresholds used within the 2018 Afghanistan Salary Calculator. This means that if you are aware of a 2018 tax exemption or 2018 tax allowance in Afghanistan that you are entitled too BUT it isn't listed here, that we don't allow for it in this version of the Afghanistan Salary Calculator. This is simply because we updated our tax calculators based on user feedback, we tailor the Afghanistan Salary Calculator to suit our users needs. Our aim is to keep tax calculations in Afghanistan simple, we achieve this my making the Afghanistan tax calculators relevent to our community's needs, this includes you. So, if you would like a new 2018 tax rates, allowance or threshold adding (or perhaps updating), or if you notice an error in our 2018 tax calculations, simply contact us and we will adjust the tool.
