3 Tax scale 2023
The scale is used to calculate the amount of your tax. It has several income brackets, each of which corresponds to a different tax rate, which varies from 0% to 45%. To apply the tax scale to your taxable income, the family quotient must be taken into account.
| Income brackets | Income bracket tax rate |
|---|---|
| Up to €10,777 | 0% |
| From €10,778 to €27,478 | 11% |
| From €27,479 to €78,570 | 30 % |
| From €78,571 to €168,994 | 41% |
| Over €168,994 | 45% |
Example: a single person whose net taxable income is €30,000. The marginal tax rate is 30% because his family quotient places him in this bracket. But not all his income is taxed at 30%.
4 What’s new in taxes for 2023

This allows employees whose income has not increased to see their tax cut. Thus, entry into the tax will be from 10,778 euros of taxable income, and no longer from 10,226 euros, for a single person. Another example, the switch to a marginal tax rate of 30% will be at 27,479 euros, and no longer 26,070 euros.
