Tax system
- Marginal CIT (corporate income tax)
- 35%Very highWorldwide
- Marginal PIT (personal income tax)
- 30%HighWorldwide
Corporate taxation basis: Worldwide. The country generally taxes worldwide income of resident companies.
Worldwide basis with residence determined by Comorian incorporation or effective place of management. Foreign-source income of resident companies is included in the taxable base, with double taxation relief routed through a narrow bilateral treaty network. No structural foreign permanent establishment exemption is available. Companies accredited under Investment Code 2020 receive a stabilised reduced rate for 5 to 15 years, but the underlying worldwide basis remains.
Standard 35 percent rate applies to Comorian and foreign companies deriving Comorian-source income. A higher 50 percent rate applies to public industrial and commercial enterprises (or entities with state or public-institution participation) whose annual turnover exceeds KMF 500 million. ANPI-accredited new entities under the Investment Code 2020 benefit from a reduced 15 percent rate (10 or 5 percent in deeper tiers conditional on local jobs commitments).
Personal income tax basis. Worldwide. Resident individuals are generally taxable on their worldwide income, subject to relief under applicable tax treaties.
Standard worldwide taxation of resident individuals based on a 183-day presence test in a 12-month period. Foreign employment income of residents is included in the base. No non-dom regime, no remittance basis, no exemption for foreign pensions or foreign rental income. Capital gains are taxable as ordinary income absent a specific exemption.
Progressive 5 to 30 percent IRPP scale on residents. Top 30 percent rate applies above KMF 3.5 million annual taxable income. Employment income is withheld via PAYE by employers and remitted to the DGI. No dedicated HNWI regime, no flat tax for new residents and no remittance basis. Investors accredited under Investment Code 2020 Régimes C and D may obtain suppression of top brackets subject to local job creation commitments.
