Hello,

I am considering moving to Austria and I need to know some information on the income taxes in this country.
I am currently living in Quebec Canada and the income taxes reach around 45 percent for an executive employee.
Is anybody can tell me about that percentage in Austria?

thank you

Hey,

I'm from Canada too (Toronto) and I have been living in Austria for about 5 years both as being employed and self employed. Maxmimum tax is 60%, but I am not sure when it begins..I think around 50 or 60k. Remember, Austria is a socialist country and the taxes are huge and you have to work here for at least 15 years to be eligible for pension.
