[Night Elven Empire]

1. Is there an Income Tax?
No tax is collected upon an individual's income.
2. Is there a GST (or VAT)?
The closest thing to a GSt is the National Sales Tax, which is placed at a 10% rate upon all goods and services. Thanks to our Unitary structure, we only have a National level.
3. Is there an Inheritance Tax?
Yes, but it is only placed upon monetary inheritance and not property. Monetary Inheritance Tax currently exists at a 10% rate.
4. Is there a Financial Transactions Tax
No, since we already have a sales tax, we consider this redundant.

The Corporate Tax Rate has recently decreased from 22% to 15%, which has attracted more companies to invest and operate within our borders thanks to new profits.
6. What other forms of Taxation exist in your nation?

Only Private Sector unions exist, but are very weak. Right-to-work laws have existed in our nation since its revival thousands of years ago. The majority of citizens, especially the middle and upper classes, find unions to be excessive and counter-productive.

The non-slave citizen unemployment rate is currently at 2.5%. Thankfully, this number is a drastic decrease from the unemployment rate of 13.5% when Ayleth I was coronated.
