Angola also has a 25% Corporate Income Tax Rate, compared to the region&#8217;s average of 26.6%.<\/p>\n<p>At the level of the AGT Tax Studies Center, in partnership with the Ministry of Finance, the manager said that they are working on the design of the Personal Income Tax, a strategy to be presented later this year to the economic team and, subsequently, be taken to public consultation.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the Angolan tax system is under construction, and also requires the necessary consensus to make it more balanced and adjusted to the country&#8217;s reality.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, he also mentioned that AGT wants to work towards being ready for international tax initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>The head of Delloite&#8217;s Tax Consulting area, Renato Carreira, highlighted the reform of the single tax as a process that will help simplify payment for companies, which will pay based on their profits.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8216;Fiscal Outlook&#8217; conference, which was attended by businesspeople, experts from different fields and public managers, aimed to promote debate on the implementation of current socio-economic measures in Angola.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
