In The Gambia, social security deductions made by employees are typically not deductible when calculating taxable income. This means that the contributions employees make towards social security are included in their gross income and are subject to income tax. Therefore, these social security contributions do not reduce the taxable income of employees, and the overall income tax liability is calculated based on the gross income before any social security deductions are made. This approach aligns with the tax system in The Gambia, where social security contributions are considered part of the taxable income.
