Taxes, including personal income tax, expenses and limitations are reviewed by the Government in Maldives periodically and typically updated each year. Not that not all tax rates and thresholds in Maldives change annually, alterations to tax policy to support strategic economic growth in Maldives mean that the certain areas may be focused on to provide specific tax relief in Maldives or support growth in certain areas (overseas invstment in Maldives for example may mean reduced non-resident income tax rates in Maldives for a period).
When tax policy in Maldives changes, the resultant tax tables also change. Tax tables in Maldives are simply a list of the relevent tax rates, fixed amounts and / or threholds used in the computation of tax in Maldives, the Maldives 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 Maldives for example).
