The tax system applicable to an operation, a business or personal income can sometimes appear complex. In order to simplify access to tax information, we have created a series of infographics providing a clear, concise overview of a number of tax systems. These include, for example, taxes on the transfer of assets, tax reductions and credits, and VAT.
