2018. aastal rakendub uus tulumaksuseadus, nn 500 eurone tulumaksuvabastus. Siiski tuleb silmas pidada, et tulumaksu tasumise suurus sõltub iga isiku kõikidest tuludest (mitte ainult töötasust) ja nende suurustest. Inimesed, kelle aastatulu on kuni 14400 eurot saavad igakuiselt kasutada tulumaksuvabastust 500 eurot. Inimesed, kelle sissetulek on 14401 kuni 25199 saavad ka teatud suuruses tulumaksuvabastust ja kõik need kelle aastatulud on suuremad kui 25200 ei saa arvestada tulumaksuvabastusega.

For many people, the final truth about the amount of income tax they will have to pay to the state may only become clear in 2019, when they start filling in their income tax returns.

In the following, we will try once again to explain as simply and briefly as possible what decision you should make about your income tax.

  1. ARVUTA 2017 ANDMETE PÕHJAL EELDATAV 2018 AASTATULU

TAXABLE INCOME – Annual income includes wages, salaries and other remuneration (holiday pay, allowances, sickness benefits, etc.), remuneration for services received under a contract of indebtedness, business income, gains from the disposal of property, rental and leasing income, royalties, interest, dividends, taxable pensions, allowances, grants, scholarships, bonuses, compensation or other income.

2. point 1st must be added to the estimated gross salary:

3. Formula for calculating estimated gross monthly earnings:


4. If the estimated annual income for 2018 is well below 14 400 (i.e. the estimated monthly gross income is below 1200), there is no need to bother with the formula, you can apply (if you have not done so) for the income tax-free minimum at the maximum rate of 500 euros. If there is a declaration, nothing needs to be done.

A NEW STATEMENT must be made:

5. * The application for the calculation of the minimum income tax exempt amount can be filed only in one workplace or in the Social Insurance Office, but to get the correct amount you must add up the fees paid by all workplaces and the Social Insurance Office!!!!
