High-Level Summary Technical Assistance Reports

A capacity development mission of the Fiscal Affairs Department (FAD) of the IMF visited Luanda, during the period November 6-17, 2023, to provide advice on tax policy and administration reforms to modernize and improve the income tax system. The mission recommended moving from a highly fragmented toward a more unified approach to taxation of income, with all labor income aggregated over the year and taxed under a common progressive tax schedule. The mission pointed to opportunities for improving income taxes compliance approaches, including through the development of capacities to manage tax incentives and international tax risks.
